How can I create unique Planner tasks from Outlook emails?

Hi,

I currently have set up a power flow triggered by incoming emails from Outlook with a specific subject line. The flow is working great, but I noticed when a field employee follows up with me on a task and uses the same subject line, additional tasks are created. Is there a function or formula I can use so if a task with a specific task name/taskID already exists in Planer, additional tasks will not be created?

    Power automate is not currently supported here on QnA. They're actively answering question in dedicated forums here.
