Get unique email address from filterarray and use these to assign Planner task to one or many users.

I have a excel table:

SearchNameemail
John Petersjohn.peters@flow.com
john.peters@flow.comjohn.peters@flow.com
Adam Smithadam.smith@flow.com

 

I have built a flow that searches the incoming email for the emails and names and return a filter array.

 

@Anonymous(contains(tolower(triggerOutputs()?['body/subject']), tolower(item()?['SearchName'])), contains(tolower(triggerOutputs()?['body/body']), tolower(item()?['SearchName'])))

 

For example if I receive an email which contains the name of John and his email plus the name adam smith, the array returns three results.

I have in an earlier step created a task in Planner, but now i want to assign the task to Adam and John. 

 

How to extract the unique values from filterarray and use these to assign the task?

And DO i need unique emails or will Planner detect duplicates and only use one?

 

I am stuck...

    SOLVED it myself. The task is able to ignore duplicate users.
