Create Event fails due to date

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 78

Hi,

I'm creating a flow that will create an event when an item is created in a sharepoint online list.

in the Create event I have this

and when I try to save the flow I get this error at the top

 

Flow save failed with code 'OpenApiOperationParameterValidationFailed' and message 'Input parameter 'item' validation failed in workflow operation 'Create_event_(V4)': The parameter with value '"@triggerOutputs()?['body/ArrivalDate']"' in path 'item/start' with type/format 'String/date-time' is not convertible to type/format 'String/date-no-tz'.'.

 

I have searched around and tried these expressions as well in the Start Time/ End Time values

formatdatetime(triggerOutputs()?['body/ArrivalDate'],'dd/MM HH:mm')

formatdatetime(triggerOutputs()?['body/EndDate'],'dd/MM HH:mm')

When I save the flow it actually saves this time but when I run it I get this error message

    The Start and End times need to be in DateTime format, for example:

    formatDateTime(triggerOutputs()?['body/ArrivalDate'],'yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm')
