Newly added fields not appearing in Power Automate

I have an existing survey in AGO that I would like to create a confirmation email for.  The survey did not have an email field, so my first step was to add the email field and populate it with data.  However, the newly added email field does not appear in the dynamic content field list in Power Automate.  All of the previously existing fields are present, it's just the new field that is missing.  As part of my troubleshooting, I created a new survey using the existing feature service and the email field does appear in dynamic content, so I know the field should work.

Has anyone run into this issue before?  Is there something I need to do to make a newly added field appear in Power Automate?

I work a ton in Power Automate but haven't run into that issue specifically, so it may be isolated to AGO.

Have you tried submitting a survey on the updated form (with something in the new email field, of course)? If you do that, go into the flow run and see if you can see the email in the Output of your Trigger.

Thanks, for the response.  The email field does appear in the trigger output, but I've had no luck getting the field to appear in the dynamic list.  To fix the issue, I created a flow using the new version of the survey where the email field appears and then changed the flow to point towards the real survey.  A little roundabout, but it works.

That is likely a bug in Power Automate (happens often).

The workaround for when an item is missing from Dynamic Content is: Go to Expression tab > type "=" > go back to "Dynamic Content" > delete the "=" > scroll through the list and locate the missing item.
