Copying items from Outlook calendar and removing duplicates

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by NeedHelp88 31

Good morning,

 

I am new to creating flows and need some help in sorting out a duplicates issue I am having. 

 

I have created a flow that copies items from my outlook calendar to an MS lists in a calendar view. I have managed to get the items to copy over BUT I am having issues with the flow creating duplicates of calendar events. With the help of google, I saw that if I use a filter array, I can filter duplicates out. In addition, I noticed that my items that were being updated were not being updated in the MS list so I have attempted to condition that into the flow as well. Please see below snips as FYI.

Still learning and would love any direction on what isn't working within my flow.

 

TIA 🙂

    I think I have fixed it! After some intense googling I have come up with this flow and it looks like it works. I am not getting duplicates and any edited events are just being updated. Snips below for anyone that might of had the same problem.
