What is the recurrence frequency?

Is it once a day?

Can you expand your scope action?

Hi Yes. I have set it once a day. 

 

I'm suspecting previously I keep try and error, by creating the new and delete the old power automate. But inside my power automate only have 1 flow currently, not sure why it keep repeating.

Could you please review the flow history to determine how many times it has been triggered today?

If the flow has only triggered once, it's likely that notifications were sent from that single flow run.

However, if the flow is triggering multiple times, it indicates that the trigger mechanism may need to be re-evaluated.

The flow seems like correct, as it only run once a day. But this is weird, until today I could not find out what is the issue. Everything seems to be correct

Got it,

I see the issue, the Apply to each 2 is causing multiple emails.

To resolve the issue, we can implement a solution using the "Create HTML Table" action. This action will generate a table containing all the entries, and then we can utilize the output of this action as the content for a single email sent through the "Send email" action. Check this blog.

Hi Sudeep,

 

Is that any other solution without deleting all the flow? or I should just remove the send an email V2?

After Get items action, add Create HTML Table action, followed by your email action.

Make a copy of your flow if you don't want to lose your work
