Logical App, how to set a simple list of string values

Question

Hello guys,

one question related on Azure Logical App, I need to receive an email with a specific subject, the name of a person, then I need to check this value if match with a specific static list of authorized person. If match then I can start with an action.

In this case I have created a task "when new email arrives", then I've created a condition to verify the subject, but how can I use an "IF person in the subject match the list of authorized then .." ?

thanks for your support

Hello, @Andrea - Thanks for reaching out! This should be a pretty straightforward implementation using String Functions, Control flow actions like Conditional, and some familiarity with how JSON data type is treated in Logic Apps.

If you provide info on how the subject line is exactly formatted and the easy way for you to maintain the static list of names, we can share with you a sample code of such workflow that you can use.
