This video shows you a real-life power automate example we use at PowerApps911 to send recurring follow up emails with flow by filtering a SharePoint list.

And while it sounds like a simple flow it is not. It requires a recurrence trigger, a complex OData query, a distinct expression, and a filtered array all so you can create an html table and send out an email with all of the leads that need to be followed up on. This flow has is all to help you better run your business and to learn lots of little things you need to know.
