Hello,
Is there any possibility to send an automatic email to the member of a sharepoint (communication site) when a page is modified ?
I searched with PowerAutomate/ Flow, I tried to use one with a list but I am not very sure it's the best way to do it.
Any ideas ?
Thanks a lot for the help,

Why not use the "Alert me" feature and specify the team member that will need to receive the email with "Existing items are modified" as change type?

Solution@juliendadoun this is very possible and a simple example of this is in the image below. This adds the recipients in manually when you build the flow but you could have a separate list to hold recipients of the email if you wanted to.

@Chris Webb maybe but doesn't that mean that every recipient needs to setup their own alert? Using Power Automate it can be centralised and the recipient doesn't need to be involved other than to read the email.

Thanks a lot for all the answers, I tried the function "alert me" and it works fine (it was some kind of hidden, i didn't see it tbh).
I will try to set up a Flow also (special thanks to rob, your screenshots will be very helpful).
I just need to make that report "looks" a bit more attractive, is there anyway to setup a sharepoint news feed as a RSS Flux ?
Or to modify the email template that is sent automatically with the "alert me" function ?
Have a nice day

@juliendadoun in my screenshot, in the Send an email action, if you click the </> at the top of body you can add in html tags to produce a nice-looking email with images, tables etc:
