Automatically fill a single text column in Lists by the value of a Person Field column
Femke11 If you just want to show the email address in the list view, you can easily do it using JSON formatting like:
{ "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json", "elmType": "div", "txtContent": "[$PersonGroupCol.email]" }Where PersonGroupCol is internal name of person or group field. You can get the internal name of your person or group column by following this article: How to find the Internal name of columns in SharePoint Online?
You can read more information about this approach in my answer given at: Get Email from user and enter into SharePoint list field

Now I've tried it again; changed it to another name and now it works! Both with a change in the name and with the creation of a new row it works fine! Flow will run two times - first a 'yes' path, then a 'no' path.
Femke11 Yes, you have to change the value completely. Not just clear the value and save the same value again.
Also, there will be one extra flow run as you noticed. That's why we have added conditions in the flow to avoid any further flow runs and infinite loop issues.
