 We can send documents get from SharePoint or other sources and send as attachments in email. In my case, I need to get the SharePoint document based on the id and convert to PDF. Once we convert to PDF, need to send the PDF document as attachment in a email. To get the SharePoint document, I have used Get File Content method to get the file content. Once we get the content, Using One drive convert method, convert the file to PDF. (before conversion, we need to create same file in One drive using Create File Method). Once we get the file content, we can send the file as attachment in the attachment section as sown below. We can also pass the JSON instead of passing the attachments.

We got a requirement from the customer to automate the server status details. There ill daily email alert trigger from server to Shared email box.

Concurrency control and Degree of parallelism are the options available in Power Automate triggers and Apply-each controls. Using Concurrency Control option, We can control number of flows to run in parallel. Without enabling the concurrency control, power automate can trigger multiple instances of a flow. But enabling the concurrency control we can mention number of instances to trigger and run in parallel. If we trigger multiple flows they will be in waiting stage. To enable PowerApps Concurrency control, select Settings and click on Concurrency control as below. After enabling the Concurrency control, there will be Degree of Parallelism option. This will allow how many flows to trigger at parallel.  In the above case, only 25 instances can run in parallel. If we get more than 25 instances they will be waiting status as below. Similarly we can enable Concurrency Control for Apply-each and it will run parallelly.

For Example we have Loans Table and referring loans table inside of the other table as a lookup column. to Update the Lookup column, we need to pass the value of the Loans as shown the image below. Similarly we can update the other columns like Owners based on the System Users as shown below.
