Hey Guys,
im pretty new to Power Automate and having trouble wrapping my head around a certain issue. Ive been browsing the internet for some time now, without getting the result i was looking for. i dont know if it is either that simple or just impossible:
i have an App in place that connects to my Sharepoint List. In the App the user can select people with a people picker (connected via O365) which is in turn variably written into the sharepoint list. I want to use the information provided in the Email-column to start an approval flow with that extracted email in power automate to implement into MS Teams or Outlook.
My question is: how do i get power automate to use the information written in the Email-column as an actual Email to start an approval flow? Until now, when i just pick the "Email"-Column as a dynamic value it doesnt seem to work. Probably due to the fact that it doesnt know how to convert the information into actual text? alternatively, since the names of the corresponding email recipients are also provided, i could link those to O365 in the sharepoint list and maybe use those profiles in power automate, if that is even possible. Would be great if you guys could give me some advice on that issue. If you think my whole plan is bonkers and that there's an easier way to tackle this problem: fire away!
