Hi

I am trying to send email to people who have been assigned the task, but its inserting a loop and not sending email.

Also the assigned to field has multiple values in sharepoint.

I have tried expressions like:

items('Apply_to_each')?['Assignedto']['Email']

items('Apply_to_each')?['Assignedto']?['Email']

Nothing Worked

Thanks

Hi
It didn't work, i think because the 'assigned to' also has multiple values.. it is multiple value column in sharepoint...

for the image there is only one value but there could be multiple,

Thanks

Correct, the "AssignedTo" is also an array of objects.
A couple of ways to tackle this:

1) If all the AssignedTo email addresses needs the same email you could convert the 1 or more email addresses into a string with the email addresses separated by a semicolon ; like so:
use outputs('Compose_string_of_emails') in the TO or BCC of Send Email action

2) If each assignee should receive a separate email, create another Apply to each loop within the Apply to each item loop, like so:
