(First Time Power Automate User!)
Here's the issue:
I've created a shipping tracker where we have Delivery Status, user Information, Item Information, etc. I would like to be able to mark an item as 'Delivered' and then it automatically send a template email to that user that was just changed to 'Delivered'.
I've been able to create a flow that partially works, however it will only send an email to the first user, it won't move on to send an email to the second or third, etc even if they were the ones that were changed.
example:
Order ID | Order Date | Status | Date Delivered | Shipment Date | Delivering To | Email Address | Item Ordered |
123456789 | 11/5/2020 | DELIVERED | 12/29/20 | 11/5/2020 | John Smith | user@email.com | VGA Cable |
987654321 | 11/5/2020 | DELIVERED | 12/29/20 | 11/5/2020 | Jane Doe | user2@email.com | VGA Cable |
Any assistance would be appreciated!

Hello, congrats on your first Flow! It's a little hard to say without seeing your Flow so I would ask that you reply with screenshots to fully help you. First question is what is your data source, an Excel file or a SharePoint list? Either way, in general your Flow will need to look something like this:
There are multiple ways to do this and it depends on your process. You could send it immediately as you update the items in the list. If you do that, I would suggest adding a Trigger Condition on the Settings of the "When an item is created or modified trigger action" to say only let the Flow fire if the modified item's Status = delivered. Or you could write to run on a schedule to say every hour or every morning at 8am check for new delivered items. If you go that method, you will also need to have a column or field that the Flow sets when you are done to say "Email sent" = Yes. So when you get items, you get all items with Status = Delivered AND Email Sent = No. That way you don't send dupes. Or you could change the status to say "Ready to Deliver", then the Flow runs and updates it to Delivered, up to you.
