Hello,

I have a current flow set up with automate, I receive an email into a select box then AI models runs extract the select data from the PDF and flow onto an excel table. If someone forwards the email into an email group it doubles up on the data in my spread sheet. Is it possible to only extract the data from the first email on in the chain?

Yes that's possible.
The fast and dirty way is analyzing the Subject line - if it doesn't start with RE: or FW: it's the first email.
The proper way is getting a specific MAPI property of email using a GRAPH request.
