Sending emails with multiple tables to many people (grouping)

Hi colleagues,

I need your advice regarding the workflow that send emails to various people (Managers) with 2 tables inside (in the future could be 3 tables). The thing is that I would like to send one email per Manager with all the information in one place (which means 2 tables to be included in the table). Please see the workflow attached (still sth not working properly there). 

 

This is the testing input data.

One table should include summary for Group A and other table for Group B. There also should be some text above each table and at the begining/end of the email.

 

The final result should sth like this,

 

Dear [Manager name] Tom,

[Some text] Below you can find a list of products

 

[Some text] Table with Group A

ProductGroup
orangeA
kiwiA

 

[Some text]  Table with Group B

ProductGroup
bananaB

 

[Some text] Thank you!

Hi @joannasokolowska 

 

Grouping sooner in table can make this logic more dynamic.

 

Hope this helps :)

Having problem uploading the snippet. I guess you just have to download and open the workflow 😅

Hi Thank you for the response. There is still something odd - please check the people with Group B (above the table there is a text Group A even in the table there is Group B). Also tables should be one under the other (not next to each other).

Hi,

Thank you again for your time and the solution :) This workflow is working when I want to paste the same tables, however in the second table I would need to add additional column from the dataset (e.g. Manager name). Could you please help with this?

Hi @joannasokolowska 

 

This method works only when there are same columns in 2 tables. If you can confirm that there will always be only 2 groups (A and B). We can build a more static solution to fit that requirement of 2 groups or n number of fixed groups,

Hi,

In my "real" workflow tables differs, so can't use this solution. Do you know how to create 2 tables based on the same dataset but includes various columns? There are only 2 groups but each group should have different table. (For this testing purpose, we can add manager name column to the group B table) 

 

Thanks
