simpler way is configure desired return type
Similarly, I have a custom list. Each list item is a department, with a Person column for the people in that department. There are between 9 and 35 people in each list item, depending on department size.
The custom list populates a multi-selection field, but the field displays the department and not each individual in that department.
The goal is, by selecting each department, being able to send a notification to all those individuals in the selected department or departments.
So far, I'm able to set it up where it'll pick up one department selection, and send an email notification, but if I select more than one, it won't email all of them but just one of them.
This is my variable
This is setting my variable to match the selection of the multi-selection field, called "Communications Groups"
How do I email each list item (department) from the multi-selection field instead of just one of them? Some sort of collection operation and a query? Any help would be great.
Thanks.

Hello again,
My situation is a little different. I have a list of potential reviewers. This list has their name, organization and email address. The approver has the ability to select the organization then person that the form will be emailed to. So my list is not a person or group column its pulling the information from a list. Hope this will help.
