Initiate by creating a flow in Power Automate, activated when a new item is added to your SharePoint List. This flow reads the 'Person or Group' field to identify collaborators.
For every collaborator named, the flow either adds a new item or updates an existing one in their list, mirroring the project details. Incorporate a condition to check if a project entry already exists for a collaborator. Based on this, the flow decides whether to update or create a new item.

Power Automate simplifies these steps with its user-friendly setup and community resources for additional guidance.
