I am trying to create an Automation that will send an email to all records in a View, but I consistently get an error which indicates that the Action does not recognize the email field.
Specifically:
Job Board Table
New Listing View – New listing (all records with today’s date)
Worker Availability Table
Active List View
Trigger: New record in Job Board Table – New Listing View
Action: Find records in Job Board Table – New Listing View
Email: to all records in Job Board Table – New Listing (field type: email)
Testing my action produces the following error report:
Invalid email address in the "to" field: <b>Worker email (El Correo de electrónico)</b><br/>theothergarynelson@comcast.net<br/><br/><br/><span style="display:inline-block;height:1px;width:100%;background-color:#999"> </span><br/><b>Worker email (El Correo de electrónico)</b><br/>theothergarynelson@comcast.net<br/><br/><br/><span style="display:inline-block;height:1px;width:100%;background-color:#999"> </span><br/><b>Worker email (El Correo de electrónico)</b><br/>theothergarynelson@comcast.net<br/><br/><br/><span style="display:inline-block;height:1px;width:100%;background-color:#999"> </span>

Hi Bestzin,
I was able to reproduce the issue you're having with inserting the emails from the list of records into the "To" field.
To configure it to work properly and email the whole list, configure the Send an Email step as:
-To: Find Records --> Field Values --> Email
I believe your error occurs because with that configuration, AirTable attempts to insert the list of emails as an actual grid or list with formatting instead of inserting the values from it.
