Check if an item exists in a SharePoint list and send an email listing the duplicates

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 28

I'm building a flow to automatically look for duplicate values within a SharePoint List when a new item is created then send an email of the duplicate values to the team. Duplicates are ok in the SharePoint list, but we are needing visibility to who is working on the same item. Any help would be very much appreciated.

    @djean64 didn't the answer from @edgonzales  help you when you asked this question last November? https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/Duplicate-List-Item/m-p/402549

    Not quite. I didn't quite understand at the time, and even now. Looking back now, I forgot that I posted that.

    Below is as far as I have been able to come. I was able to get it to work when I placed Get Items before Initialize variable. But it sent an email for every item created..
