    Hi @Saan ,

     

    Do you want to sync tasks from List1 to TasksList1, then send an approval email to the Assigned people?

     

    I have started the flow likes below, please check it for a reference.

     

    Add the trigger When an item is created, select List11.

     

    Add the action Create item, manually enter the Tasks list name in the List name field.

     

    Then add the action Start and wait for an approval to send the approval email to the Assigned user.

     

    Note: I named the people column as Approver, so I select dynamic content Approver Email from the trigger for the Assigned to field.
