How go avoid "apply to each"

Hello

I am stuck with a current flow, where I want to contact the creator of a certain file.

The flow is triggered when a file is created, then the properties are checked (to get the name of the creator).

As soon as I want to apply the creators e-mail address as an dynamic content, the whole thing gets wrapped in a "apply to each" loop an the output "value" is preset.

If i run the flow, it runs through but no e-mail is ever sent.

Does someone know an answer to this issue?

You are in a loop because Get Files can return more than 1 file. You want to use Get file properties instead.

See my example below - add a send and email after my Get File properties.

Hi Scott
Thank you for your solution!

FYI, I came across another option:
I have set "Top Count" to 1, to avoid loading multiple files
