Match product from one list with an owner email from another

Posted on by Zwart

I would like to take a manual process and automate some parts of it to make it more dynamic: I have an Approval flow setup to send new technical documents to Product Owners and SME's for reviewThe Approval flow is triggered when a new review request is added to a list - New Content Review Request (the list has a column that references the product [selected from managed metadata]) I have a second list that has all the products listed in one column and the current Product Owner listed in a 'people' column - Owners. I would like to have the flow check which product is listed in the request (New Content Review Request), then check the second list (Owners) to see who the current owner is, and use their email address in the flow to send the request. I can get the items separately from each list, but have not been successful in pulling the email value from the people list and placing it as a variable into the flow. Any pointers?

Hi @Zwart ,

Your product owner list should also have the product column [selected from managed metadata]) as it is in the request list.

And then you could refer to screenshot below to create the flow:

Thank you kindly Alice @v-alzhan-msft ! This worked. I was placing my references in the wrong fields so your arrows really helped!! I ended up putting the results in a variable so I could use it elsewhere. Thanks again!
