I’m getting an error on my Outlook email component. My connection to my google sheet is fine.
- Invalid email address in parameter ‘address’.
What am i missing?
Welcome to the Make community!
Make sure there are no spaces before and after the email address variable.
To do this, you can use the built-in function trim — “Removes space characters at the start or end of the text.”
{{ trim(text) }}
For more information, the function’s documentation can be found in the Help Centre. You should also complete the tutorials in the Make Academy.
Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

Perhaps you’ll also need to trim the “From” email as well.
If you need further assistance, please provide the following:
1. Relevant Screenshots
Could you please share screenshots of your full scenario? Also include screenshots of any error messages, full uncropped module settings (fields), relevant filter settings (conditions), and module output bundles. We need to see what you’re working with to give you the best advice.
You can upload images here using the Upload icon in the text editor:
We would appreciate it if you could upload screenshots here instead of linking to them outside of the forum. This allows us to zoom in on the image when clicked, and prevent tracking cookies from third-party websites.
2. Scenario Blueprint
Please export the scenario blueprint. Providing your scenario blueprint file will allow others to quickly recreate and see how you have set up the mappings in each module, and also allows us take screenshots or provide module exports of any solutions we have for you in return - this would greatly benefit you in implementing our suggestions as you can simply paste module exports back into your scenario editor!
To export your scenario blueprint, click the three dots at the bottom of the editor then choose ‘Export Blueprint’.
You can upload the file here by clicking on this button:
Sharing these details will make it easier for others to assist you.

Sure! Full blueprint:

Looks like there is a typo in your email address.
Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

The only thing left that I can think of is that the Outlook connection does not have permission to send email from that email address.
Did you run the whole scenario instead of just the email module?
Can you try creating a filter to check if the email address exists?
Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

The weird thing is. I have another module doing the same thing. Just different emails. Not sure why this isn’t working.
It somehow started working. Not sure why but i’ll take it.
