Hello,
 
I have a power automate to count all of the email in a shared mailbox. I get a error when in the email field "To" are more than 255 characters.
How can solve that issue?

    Hi @frixel,
     
    It looks like you have used a single line of text type of field in a SharePoint list. That has a limit of 255 characters.
     
    You can switch it to a multiple lines of text type of field.
     
    Below is an example
     
    1. Limitation of that type of field

     

    2. Changing it to multiple lines
     



     
    Happy to help out 😁

    Okay, I'll try that and adjust it. You can do that in the existing list and in the list header.
