How to create a daily summary of Planner Tasks by Bucket to include assigned to display name?

Hello everyone, I am new in using Power Automate and I have difficulties in using the powerautomate to generate a daily summary of incomplete tasks showing in MS planner.  I used the template of Create a daily summary of Planner Tasks by Bucket and want to modify and add Assigned to on the outstanding task.

 

Html table to be included 

1. Task Title

2. Due Date

3. Assigned to

 

I have been using the template flow and I have searching the solution, I don't quite sure where should I insert the get user id in the flow to add display name in the email summary for showing the name assigned to for the task accordingly.   Would need your kindly help to show the steps /screenshots of getting the user id and display in the table.

    It actually lives in the list tasks action. Just search the dynamic content for assignment and it should come up, but it returns a userid not a name. I think you can pass it through a sharepoint lookup person profile or other get user profile but not sure, i'll have to try and find one where i've done it.

    Thank you for your reply, would you share the screenshot that which action should I apply?

    There should be a planner action card to get assignments, which is an array field, so you'll be forced into an apply to each to use the assignment value.
