Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Create a new automated flow from blank, then select the trigger 'When an item is created' for SharePoint, then add the action 'Send an email' (Outlook), then configure the email and save.
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because you must start with a blank flow, choose the appropriate trigger, add the desired action, configure it, and then save the flow.
- ✗
Create a new automated flow from blank, then add the action 'Send an email', then select the trigger 'When an item is created' for SharePoint, then configure and save.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because the trigger must be selected before adding actions; actions depend on the trigger context.
- ✗
Select the trigger 'When an item is created' for SharePoint, then create a new automated flow from blank, then add action 'Send an email', then configure and save.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you cannot select a trigger without first creating a flow; the trigger is chosen during flow creation.
- ✗
Create a new automated flow from blank, then select the trigger 'When an item is created' for SharePoint, then configure the email and save, then add the action 'Send an email'.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you must add the action before configuring it; you cannot configure an action that hasn't been added yet.
