A have a list on Sharepoint

There's column "Person", type "Person or Group" (single item only) in which user is stored.

I'm trying to create a calendar event (Create Event V2) using Flow and use that column in "Required attendees" as "Person Email".

The flow isn't working and returning me an error:

"One or more recipients are invalid. clientRequestId: id serviceRequestId: id"

due to the fact that user seems to be incorrect (according to logs):

INPUTS
...

Required attendees

i:0#.f|membership|user.name@domain.ltd;

Could you please help me to fix the issue?

Thanks.

I just ran a quick test using a person or group column that does not allow multiple selections and the Flow ran without error:

If the person or group column allows for multiple selections, the Flow above will error out. To fix, configure your Flow in a manner similar to below. I am looping through each of the email addresses and appending them to a string variable. Please note the semicolon I include after the email address. I then reference the variable rather than the column when specifying required attendees.
