Sudden Error: Flow sending 2 emails instead of 1

Posted on by Yoshio

hi,

my flow has been working great for several months. Ran it on 3/3, and it worked properly but today, 3/6, it sent 2 emails instead of just the one. This is the second time it has happened with this flow. The first time I just recreated it but now I'm wondering if something else is wrong? I don't want to have to recreate it every time it starts sending multiple emails.

Based on what you are showing, it certainly makes sense that this could happen since your e-mail action is within an Apply to each action. If you don't want multiple e-mails going out, why do you have the action in Apply to each?

What I think you might be trying to do is send one e-mail with multiple attachments? If so, the e-mail action needs to be outside of the Apply to each like is outlined in this post: Advanced | Flow of the Week: Send multiple attachments on a single email | Power Automate Blog (microsoft.com)

I want to send 1 email with 1 attachment. This flow HAS been working, sending only one email. Why would it suddenly send 2? When for months it has only been sending 1 and I have not done anything to it.

Mistake! it sent 2 emails because I had 2 attachments, one should not have been there. It still is only sending 1 email.
