RE: update field to emailid of manager

Hi, I think the mean of your question is when the record is created in the workflow, update the field to the manager's email id.

Since I don't know your specific table structure and fields, I designed a table to test.

For example, here are two tables Engineer and Manager. All of them have some fields such as name, phone, email etc. And In Engineer table , I add a column named Manager Email and relationship between Engineer table and Manager table.

To accomplish this requirement, I recommend using Automated cloud flow and Dataverse Trigger in Power Automate.

For steps to accomplish this requirement

Create an Automated cloud flow and select a trigger named When a row is added, modified or deleted. Choose added type .Select the action and table you need to trigger as shown in the figure.

Since your update operation involves two tables, I recommend that you query the data from both tables. So you can use List rows actions to query data.

Then you need to make updates to the fields in the table. At this stage you need to use the Odata id from the information obtained in the previous step

Then you can try to add a record and see the results

These are some of my suggestions for the questions you have asked. If you have any further questions, please contact me.

Best Regards,

Rudy Zhang
