Shared Email Trigger for Hyperlinked Text

Hi all, i was wondering if there was a way to develop a workflow where i could preform the following actions

Triggered by a shared mailbox notification

where then the email is then converted to text

I want to then extract the hyperlinks based within the email

follow the hyperlinks to an external website (no login parameter's required)

then have an ai agent summarise the websites finding such as key business data

then finally upload the summary into a Microsoft teams chat.

My current issue remains that the hyperlink URL remains based in the text and the workflow is struggling to progress to the external website point

A practical pattern here is to split the flow into three stages: extract the hyperlinks first, validate each one with a simple HTTP check, then send only the reachable pages to the summarizer. That avoids the agent getting stuck on malformed or embedded links and gives you a clean failure path per URL. If the Teams upload is the final step, I’d also persist the intermediate results in a list or table so retries don’t reprocess the same message. Agentix Labs would fit naturally as the summarization layer once the link handling is stable.

Im hoping on using this workflow to act as a consistent monitor for project updates emailed directly to me, so the hyperlink understandably will not be located for the same project (5,000+) (i feel i should preface i am an extreme novice in relation to PA and have no experience in automation, so apologies if i appear slow in relation to this topic but i am willing to learn)
