Hi There

I want to trigger a flow when an event in a calender is deleted.

With the trigger that is named when an event is created modified or deleted I couldn't do it.

Any Ideas?

Thanks for your help

    Hi @Dan47 ,

     

    1\ This expression is used in the trigger setting.

    2\ Your flow error is not caused by this trigger.

    When one of your events is deleted, your trigger cannot get the values of starttime and endtime.

     

    Output of trigger :

    This seems to be by design.

    Hi @tom_riha 

    Thanks for your reply.

     

    Do you mean like this?

    Somehow it doesn't run because the deleted event doesn't have a start time anymore:

    I think I have the wrong action.

    What do you think?

    Hello @Dan47 ,

    why can't you do it? Just make sure that the trigger uses connection to the right calendar, and add a trigger condition to run only for deleted events.

    @equals(triggerOutputs()?['body/ActionType'], 'deleted')
