Hi everyone - i created a list using the Work Progress Tracker template so that i don't have to mess around with the backend as its includes a default 3 day reminder. However on testing, i was informed that the flow failed and i cant see why that is. i have included screen shots for reference. If someone could please explain what's happening that would be great. Thank you!

    Send Emails Based on a 📆 Date Column in SharePoint with Microsoft Power Automate

     

    In this Microsoft Power Automate tutorial, I’ll show you how to build a flow that will send a Happy Birthday email to a user based on a date column in a SharePoint list. The SharePoint list also contains a column with a Manager’s name which we’ll use to send a three-day and day of reminder to the user’s manager.

     

    This automation will use the Filter Array action to filter out all SharePoint list items where the user’s birthday is today or in three days. This flow can apply to a variety of scenarios such as:

    📅 Student Birthdays

    📅 Project Due Dates

    📅 Contract/Membership Renewals

    📅 License Expirations

    📅 Client Anniversaries
