3 Ways to Send Email from Salesforce Flow

#1MinuteTip There are three ways or options to send emails from Flow. Create Classic or Lightning Email template and create an Email Alert (this is what we have traditionally done for sending emails from Workflow Rules or Process Builder) and then you can use those email alerts in Flow to send email. The benefit of this approach is that you can leverage your existing templates and email alerts.

Or you can directly use the ‘Send Email’ option in Action Element of Flow. Optionally use resource type of ‘Text Template’ to define the email body and merge field syntax to dynamically populate field values at run time.
