I was troubleshooting a workflow that just went live for our company this week, and when I was looking at the run details I saw that the final action, “Notify Someone” was marked as “This action doesn’t exist anymore”
I’m using a Workflow to link mirrored columns after a user creates a new item, and one of the limitations of Workflows and Emails is that you can’t send an email direct to a user, you need an email address to send it to. You also cannot send notifications to Mirrored Person columns.
I was using my workflow to copy a mirrored “person” column into a non-mirrored “Person” column, then the “Notify Someone” action to actually notify the Person column.
Was the “Notify Someone” action permanently removed from Workflows? Is it actually completely removed from the product and now I need to look at all of my other automations that use the Notify Someone action?
Is there a different way to take action to notify a person column using a workflow?
