Hi, I have ~300 SharePoint libraries that we were using the alerts feature to monitor for new file uploads. We need to be alerted via email for document uploads. I can make individual flows for each library to send, but ideally we would have one flow that takes care of all of them since that would mean a couple days of just creating 300 new flows most likely. Power automate is supposed to be more powerful for exactly this kind of situation right?

...Right?

I have tried multiple ways of generating one power automate flow that reads through a list of the libraries in order to achieve this to no avail. There are a couple issues that I've encountered with the retirement of alerts and trying power automate.

I have to login to my boss's microsoft account to make the flow since having the alerts being connected to the account of someone in a position who may (and is) leaving at some point is obviously not ideal. This is not possible when for instance I'm in the office and they're at home, which just happened today so I'm unable to work on the problem. There doesn't seem to be a way to have a generic email from a generic account send it like it was with alerts.
There are constant errors with it either finding the list or reading the list of libraries that need to be monitored. If there is a different way for power automate to "look" through a large amount of libraries I would love to know because I cannot get it to work with a list of them.

Are there any answers to either of these issues or am I going to be stuck making 300 individual flows?
