"Dotwalking" in a For Each in Flow Designer

Hello all,

I've got a Flow build in progress that on trigger, will look up Business Applications that meet a specific criteria so that we can use that information for sending notifications to Business Owners. The issue I'm running into, is I want to make sure we're sending an email only to each unique Business Owner as opposed to one email per Business App.

 

I'm not seeing a way to get to Business Application.Business Owner in the "For Each" but I'm presuming there's a way to parse the responses to get the data, I'm just not seeing a way to do that. Has anyone accomplished this previously or are there suggestions on how to do it?

 

Thanks!

Hi @Erik Nelson 

 

In the For Each action, you are working with the complete record.
Since your goal is to send an email, you can add a Send Email action after the For Each step. In the To field, select Technology Owner Email so the message is sent to the appropriate recipient.

Hi @SAI VENKATESH 

 

While this is definitely helpful, it still creates the issue I'm trying to avoid, which is sending multiple emails to the same people. I did try it, but instead of sending 210 total emails (number of business owners) it sent 958 (number of business applications).
