SharePoint List Rule to send email not allowing shared mailbox email address
Hi I have tried to search for an answer to this to no avail. We have a SharePoint list and want to create a rule that sends an email when a new list item is created. Sounds simple but I can't see...

If you haven't investigated it before, now might be a good chance to start learning Power Automate. The flow for sending an email when a new item is created is incredibly easy;
- the trigger is the SharePoint when a new item is created trigger. You select the site and the list.
- there is only 1 action which is the Office 365 Outlook send an email (v2) action. You could also use the Send an email from a shared mailbox (v2) action. You add the recipient, subject and email text and can select dynamic content from the trigger as I have done below where the song and artist added to the list is automatically entered into the email.
Come back with any questions about this.
