For Selected item not returning Email or Display name

I have a Power Automate that runs from the "For a Selected Item" on a SharePoint list
In the past, I've been able to use the email address and display name of the person that initiated the flow but now, I'm getting a guid-type id instead.
Any ideas why this is happening?  I've tried with both the New and classic editor in Power Automate.
