In this video, we show two Power Automate examples. We first create a scheduled automation to send a timesheet reminder to a group Teams chat every other Wednesday. In the second example, we trigger an automation from a SharePoint list item to send an email and/or a chat with the selected item’s information formatted as an HTML table.
