I am trying to setup a flow where when a comment is added to an item, it will send an email to the item owner but I cannot get it to send the comment nor can I trigger the flow when the comment is added. any ideas?

    Can you share some images of your flow in the classic UI so I can see what you are saying.  I need to see some of the data from the SP list please to understand the refrences etc.

    Yes, I have added dynamic content but I am not sure which one is the comments on the Item edit screen? Body\ActivityFeed\ModerationComments is what Copilot tries to enter but the value is null so it throws an error.

    I assume you have put the dynamic content of the comments in the email body that is the first step.

     

    The second step is your flow needs to start off with WHEN AN ITEM IS MODIFIED then the rest of the flow after that.
