Identified this is a permissions error
The owner needs to open the list and select: Settings > List settings > Advanced settings. Under Item-level Permissions, the Read access option must be changed to Read all items.

Yes, I mentioned this in my original post. But it defeats the point of wanting restricted permissions on the list.

I still think since a list owner has full permissions on all list records, he/she should be able to do list automation and not have to resort to Power Automate.
