The flow is designed to get to match two items together and then send an email. These items are in two separate lists.

 

List one contains strings like pending or proposed 

column one is a title 

expression one

get items 

(Status eq 'Pending') or (Status eq 'Proposed') and (RF_Country eq 'UK' )

 

column two is a person or group

expression two

columnname eq '' (doesnt work because its an object)

 

How would i get the email from that object and then send all the pending status items to those people?

    Solved this issue now by instead targetting the lateral column which is of a string type. Expression used columname ne null and Now it gets the emails from the person or group column type

    added more screenshots to the original. im trying to grab the email from person or group column type and then send an email to those people. Like i said when i trigger it manually it works sometimes, i assume the method im using is wrong because its an object but using the expression below didnt work either 

     

    columnname/EMail eq 'dynamic email'

    Hey

     

    This doesn't seem to be a trigger problem... the error "Parameter 'To' cannot be null or empty" is usually from a "Send an email (v2)" action...

     

    Are you sending an email below the Compose in your screenshot and the To field is empty?

     

    Can you maybe provide the full flow and where exactly the error occurs?

     

    cheers
