Hi Community,
I want to send an email reminder to the Task owner in a SharePoint Tasks list through a workflow. As follows:
1. Send an email reminder to task owner 1 day before due date
2. Send 2nd reminder to the task owner on the same target date
3. Send an email every 3 day to task owner until the task is closed
How do I achieve this
Thank you in advance

Hi @Turka89,
If you want to send the first two reminder emails, you should create a Recurrence trigger runs every day.
Then create a condition to determine:
If you want to send reminder Email every 3 days until the task is closed, you should create the other Recurrence trigger runs every day, then check the start day whether equals to today, if it is, start a Do until loop to send Email every three days until the task status is closed.

Hi @v-litu-msft
Your logic is correct, however, emails was still coming. I found this post which actually solved it for me.

Hi @v-litu-msft
Thank you so much for your inputs it worked 1st and 2nd reminder however, im facing issues with 3rd reminder. Emails still coming even though I have changed the task status to 'Completed'. Here is a screenshot
Thank you
Hi @Turka89,
What's the type of the Task status column?
If it is a choice column, you should use the dynamic content Task status value into the input of Do until action.

Hi @v-litu-msft
Still getting emails. My scenario if Due date is less than Today date send emails every 3 days until task is completed.
Thank you
Hi @Turka89,
The Flow to send an email every 3 days to task owner until the task is closed should be:
1. Recurrence trigger runs every day;
2. Get items to filter items that Start date equals to today, formate date should be 'yyyy-MM-dd';
3. Then create a Do-until loop for these items to send reminder email every 3 days until status value equals to Completed.
