tl'dr: how to go from a freetext field in sharepoint to an email I can use in an approval flow?
Hi,
The use case seems very trivial to me yet I'm unable to do it. I administer a site collection for a department of 250 people where there is partial secure data. People need to be preapproved for each segment of secure data. There are like 6 maintopics with each around 20 different subtopics where people can store the secure data so its to long for a simple dropdown.
So I opted to create a Microsoft form in which i can use the cascading (dependable) dropdowns. Yet I cannot find a way to get the free text email into a people picker to use in an approval flow. How can I obtain my result?

dear,
I followed this example from mrackley to build the cascade.

Now I have a free text field with an email adres in it in a list. Now i want to use that email address in that free text field as a people picker field in a flow. How can I achieve that? I hope this makes it more clear.
KR, Manfred
