Getting a Outlook task ID based on Planner title (outlook tasks title is the same)

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

hi,

 

we want to create a flow where we mark outlook tasks completed when a planner tasks completes.  The way we need to achieve this is to get the outlook tasks ID from comparing the titles (both titles in planner and outlook tasks are the same - a different flow has been created for that).

    Hi!! Important, for people who want to use fLow in Spanish, rename
    split(body('Get_task_details')?['description'],'OutlookMessageId=')[1]  by
    split(body('Obtener_detalles_de_tarea')?['description'],decodeUriComponent('%0A'))[0]
     
    And 
     
    split(outputs('Compose'),'MessageId=')[1]   by  split(outputs('Redactar'),'messageId=')[1]

    Thanks for the work, it works great!!!

    Hi, I am also trying to create this flow, and have followed the above screenshot, but unfortunately it came back with an error:

    Please help, what did I do wrong?

    Hi, Thanks for this solution. It worked for me. But given that it checks for every outlook task for "Subject", it took nearly 11s to compare 33 tasks. Is there another efficient method to solve this problem?
