Hello guys.

I would like to ask if you have encountered something like this.
I have a column in SharePoint that is formatted to be a button that triggers a flow.
In my flow, I have a manual input as trigger, and I want that when I click the button in my SharePoint List, the data from the EmployeeEmail column is populated to the Manual Input of the flow.
Is this possible?
Thank you.

Here are some screenshots and context:

1. SharePoint List record

2. Send Email formatting:

{
"$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json",
"elmType": "button",
"txtContent": "Send Email",
"customRowAction": {
"action": "executeFlow",
"actionParams": "='{\"id\": \"<my_flow_id>\", \"inputs\": {\"Email\": \"' + [$EmployeeEmail] + '\"}}'"
},
"style": {
"background-color": "#008082",
"color": "white",
"border-radius": "0 15px"
}
}

3. After Clicking Send Email button: (here is where I want to auto populate the value of EmployeeEmail column)

4. Flow:

When you create a flow that triggers from a row, you don't need to add that input there.

You can use the Get Item action and use the dynamic content in the later steps.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

I've been trying to mark your reply as an answer yesterday however it just keeps on loading. Though I do not have issues with my internet connection. Is this an issue with the new Power Platform Community? or I am just the only one experiencing this?

Really sorry about this.
