Basically you got your variables wrong. You have 3 times the variable text... and in your emailBody you refer to TextEntry1,2 and 3... being the inputfields and not the variables.
It needs to be something like this...
let player = GetPlayer();
let ip1 = player.GetVar("TextEntry");
let ip2 = player.GetVar("TextEntry1");
let ip3 = player.GetVar("TextEntry2");
var email="[email protected]";
var subject="subject line";
var body_start="How you want to begin your body." +ip1+" "+ip2+" "+ip3;
var mailto_link='mailto:'+email+'?subject='+subject+'&body='+body_start;
win=window.open(mailto_link,'emailWin');Sample shared...
Thank you. I copied what I had seen from others on here. What does let mean or do then because every other one I've seen had var in this part?
Also, do you know if this will give me the format I need above? To be clear Question 1 etc. is not part of the text entry variable.

I just tried your Story file and I get this window pop up...
Does this look like there's something blocking it e.g. company firewalls or similar?
Out of interest, should it work whilst in SL or does it need to be published for it to work?
Thanks.
Andrew
Apologies, it was indeed because I needed to publish it and it is now working.
I'm just now trying to work out how I can format the email for each of the three entries to be under separate headings.

You should publish to Web or Review 360; otherwise, Storyline will not be able to access your email client from its native environment.
