Outlook Calendar Event Categorization

Like (0) ShareShare

Posted on 18 Aug 2022 09:06:20 by 15

Hi!

I'm creating a flow wherein it will automatically categorize the event based on the number of required attendees. To give you insight my conditions are like these:

If 2 required attendees = Checkpoint meeting

If less than 10 attendees = Small meeting

If more than 10 attendees = Large meeting

However, I'm experiencing problem on my condition action since I need to convert "Required Attendees" into number so that my condition will be met. Is it possible to do?

I hope somebody helps me with my concern.

Thank you so much!

    @TepTep  First pass attendees ina compose then run flow. see output how attendees are coming. Then in another compose use split() which will give you an array.

    Now initialize variable type int with value 0.

    Apply to each - pass compose output (in which you use split())--->increment your variable with 1.

    sorry not able to post screen as of now.

    @TepTep  Store your required attendees in a compose then use split() this will give you ateendies array. Initialize one int variable and loop the array with increment action you will get total count.
