Email
The Email flow step allows you to send an email to one or more email addresses. This is useful if you want to send notifications when a previous flow step fails.
Step Inputs
In the Edit Step menu, add the following details about the step and step configuration as needed for your flow.
When using the Email Step you can send an email to more than one person by using a comma to separate addresses. You can also select Expressions and enter code that outputs an array of email addresses.

An expression that works with the Create Delimited File step to send an email, usually containing formatted data.

Use Cases & Examples
Use the Email step when you want to receive notification of a step’s completion. This works well with the Conditional step.
You can also create a flow with just the Email step, then use the Call A Flow step to call the Email step. This is useful when you frequently send flow result emails to the same addresses in the Email step.
If you create a flow with the Map to format data found in the workflow processing, and generate a file (typically a CSV) from the data in the Create Delimited File step, you can email that file in the Email step.
