[BUG] Not able to assign display name for sender email address in Communication Email

[Saurav-S-Purushothaman]

Describe the bug I am trying to change the display name of the sender email address. The user part of the sender email address is DoNotReply. I want to change that. Is that possible? If it is not possible to set the display name using sdk, what is the alternative to achieve this?

I tried setting the .setSenderAddress of EmailMessage as below. Both cases gives me the same error. :

• "\"MyDisplayName \"<DoNotReply@example.com>"
• "Username <DoNotReply@example.com>"

But <DoNotReply@example.com> is valid and its display name is DoNotReply. It sends email without any error

Exception or Stack Trace

Status code 400, "{"error":{"code":"BadRequest","message":"Request body validation error. See property 'senderAddress'","target":null,"details":null,"innererror":null}}

Expected behavior Feedback: It would be much better if the setSenderAddress is expecting an EmailAddress class instead of String so that we can set the display name.

@acsdevx-msft as there isn't a CODEOWNER for email

@vcolin7 same request, follow up with communication team offline to get a positive handoff, and update the CODEOWNER entry appropriately

@joshfree @vcolin7 Following up on these issues. Any progress? Can I expect anything in the near future? If not, could you guys guide me to any links or document for a work around to make this work? ( I wasn't able to find anything myself )
