I previously had issues getting my filter array to work but have since corrected it. I'm now having issues trying to compose the filtered data and get it in a usable form to later send out via email. I've tried several youtube tutorials that either have dated versions or do not experience the same issues as me despite me trying all my options. for the apply to each I have seen from other answers that my input should be "body" of the filter array. but when i run my flow it fails at the apply to each action as an invalid input which has now changed to "body/value" and says "body/value" is invalid, valid inputs are "body". Please help with any guidance to fix my flow, as well as what steps i will need to do for my compose or beyond to get to the email action later if known. thank you.
@newtester2021 I would recommend using the Classic Designer as the New Designer is still buggy. Once you've switched to the Classic Designer could you expand all your actions and upload a screenshot of your flow? It'll help to provide more insight.

Did you know that the Condition action has a limit of 10 conditions? Although it might look like the Filter Array action can only accept one condition—this is not true. By using the advanced mode you can enter multiple conditions into a Filter Array action with an expression.
