Automate email process

Note: When design Power Automate flow, for file path or folder path values, try not to pick from the dropdown list, but instead type in the actual name. When picking from the dropdown list, the designer will undercover save the actual internal physical ID of the location as well. If you then try to export the package and modify it for a different folder, it will be hard as the physical ID will no longer match with the one for the new location.
