Assigned to column in Sharepoint List
Could you give an example of how to send email notifications to a person in an "assigned to" identify field if a specific record that their identity is selected in that field - is created or changed please.
I am learning Power Automate
geoffhicks I recommend using the new item trigger. There are risks using the edited item trigger, because you could happen to face a situation where the same "assignedTo" user is getting spammed.

When that item is created, check if the "assigned to" is populated (not empty). If it has a user value, email that specific user.
If you need further assistance, please notify me and I will gladly help.
