Hi, 
 
I'm trying to build a flow whereby users who signed up to receive updates regarding a certain topic are notified via email. I'm getting some errors. Can anyone help?
 
TRIGGER: Automatic, anytime a new item is added to a MS List 1 (the list I update regularly) > OK
Get items from MS List 2 (the list where user sign up with name, email, and topic of interest)
Apply to each: body/value (from List2)
Condition: If topic in List 1 matches List 2
If true: Send email to any user who signed up for the topic that just got updated. Each should receive an individual emails. 
 
Thanks a lot everyone!

    You can apply a condition that checks if the list 2 entry contains the topic that has been entered in list 1.
     
    Then you can proceed with the rest of the steps.
     
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers!

    Thanks for that!
     
    I'm running into a few errors though. 
    Either all users who signed up receive the email, regardless of the condition, or all those who signed up receive it in a single email (whereas I would like individual emails) or they don't receive it at all.
     
    What's the right way to do it? What should be in the "TO:" field of Send an email? I understand it should not be an array as that leads to an error. Should email addresses be appended first?
     
    Thank you soo much again!
