    Hi @mmbr1606,

     

    I dont know what is the problem with the connection. For any flow connection is not working, gmail, sharepoint, onedrive etc. Refer pics below.

    Hi @mmbr1606,

     

    Can I call you for 10 mins or so, as I feel its a quick resolution to this which can be done more effectively over the phone. 

    Im still struggling to find a solution to this.

     

    Thanks.

    hey @shery328 

     

    for what you wanna do,in my point of view it is not needed to call the flow with the submit button.

    delete the powerapps trigger and start with "when an item is created"

     

    You can simply follow the screenshot:

    There are no steps required.

     

    Just go to make.powerautomate.com create a new flow and search for the trigger and action.

    Hi @mmbr1606 

     

    Can you let me know the steps required to have a trigger in power automate called "When an item is created" and an action to send email (when I wanna notify with email).

     

    Thanks

    Hey @shery328 

     

    For this you no not really need the connection between apps and automate.

    In my opinion power automate is enough.

     

    If you use sharepoint as a datasource there is a trigger in power automate called "When an item is crrated" and and action send email (when u wanna notify with email).

     

    there is also a trigger "when an item is modified" where u can put a trigger condition to a certain status for example.

     

    Let me know if my answer helped solving your issue.
