Flow: Update People field in SharePoint online with “multiple selections allowed”

Problem:

When you create many workflow applications, you’ll learn, that most of them will use same data again like organization information, responsible persons etc.
So I started setting up a “Central Data” location with all relevant info as SharPoint lists.
Then I went to the different applications and created a “Get Centralized Data” Flow for each of them.
BUT… trying to update a SharePoint People field, that has the setting “multiple selections allowed” turned out to be a pain. You can’t just use the dynamic value from the central list, even the fields were configured identically.

Solution:

Put the person’s claims into an array variable, but don’t use “claims” but “Email” value (yes, it’s confusing ;-))
