Microsoft 365 Users Search for Users returns duplicates

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi,

 

I'm building a flow where I need to gather email addresses for some of our 365 users and send them. It's all working fine, except everyone is getting 2 emails. I checked the outputs from each step and it seems that when I use this connector, it returns matching users twice. I verified this by putting the output from this connector into Notepad++ and searching for duplicate IDs. Every user is listed twice in the output.

 

Has anyone else come across this, or can anyone recommend a way of removing these duplicate results?

 

Thanks

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    Could you please share the screenshot of the configuration and the run history of the flow?

    Does the Search for users action would return the same user twice?

    Could you please check each user is unique in the Microsoft o365 users, the Search for users action would return all the filtered users.

    If you want to get the special user profile, you should use the Get user profile action instead.\

     

    Best Regards,

    Alice
