Flow ran successfully but did not send email

Posted on by 3

I just recently created a simple Flow in Power Automate that uses the 'Send me an email notification' action from the Notifications connector in it. In manual triggered testing the Flow and action worked fine; I received the desired emails. But the flow is set to run on a daily schedule and it was there that it didn't work.
The flow started at the scheduled time correctly, then generated a JSON correctly with the list of elements to send emails. Finally it was supposed to send a Notification for each element in the list and it shows up as successful, but I didn't receive those emails.

I made sure they're not in junk or spam. I made sure there wasn't an API limit mentioned in the documentation that prevented me from using it again. I made sure the JSON output that is the input for this action was correct.
More mysterious even is that after testing the Flow again, the emails arrived as expected.

Do you know what might be happening? Why it doesn't register as an error? Where I can learn more and fix it?

    Hey @VictorIvanidze thanks for the reply, but the Office 365 Outlook connector only works with work and school accounts so I can't do that. Is the Notifications connector known to be so buggy that the best practice is just to avoid it?

    Use the "Send an Email (v2)" action of "Office 365 Outlook" connector instead of "Send me an email notification".
