Creating Emails

I have this statement and it works but I'm wondering if I can build on it to create a custom email when it opens the link.  I know you can do this in Excel, Word but I'm not sure if you can build out...

    Hi Anonymous ,

    I'm sorry I haven't found a better way in Power BI side so far, maybe you can try to create an email message template in your mailbox.

    Best Regards

    I have pointed at the column where the emails already exist and it's working perfectly to create an email to that address.  

     

    The question I have is, can I somehow get it to not just open the email but to open a template/form email that I can then just hit send on rather than writing the email every time.

     

    Thank you

      Hi Anonymous ,

      I‘m afraid that Power BI does not have this feature yet. What information the template/form mail include?

      Best Regards

        I was just looking to add on a "Thank you for your business" to the string.

         

        I'll explore another solution unless you have another thought.

         

        Thank you.
