Is there a way to fetch just one record or take the first/last one from the returned list?

In table A I have a record with an email.
In table B, I also have records with their emails.

I need to update A record with B attributes but they come from different sources and are not associated - they just have the same emails.

I'm trying to do something similar with automation here, but I'm getting stuck in the Update Record step. I'm using the "Find Records" function to gather available options but am having trouble selecting just one and then inserting it into another record in a different table. 

In case it's helpful, this is my issue: https://community.airtable.com/t5/automations/automation-updating-record-with-just-one-item-from-ano...
