Hi, I have created a flow and it sends an email notification when item is created in SharePoint list(PowerApps is the UI).

There is a field called contact person and sending selected user in email. Now I want to convert this contact person name in outlook email is hyperlink so that when user clicks on person name , new out look email window should be open up with the contact person's email id in "To" field.

Please suggest me to achieve this functionality. Any idea would be greatly appreciated.

I think you can use create email action, and in the body, put:
<a href="mailto:someone@somewhere.com">Email Contact Person DisplayName</a>
Now, when the link is clicked, it will open new email with someone@somewhere.com in the "To" field. Note that you can replace someone@somewhere.com with dynamic value "contact person" from sharepoint list, and "Email Contact Person Display Name" with dynamic value from sharepoint list as well.
