Auto approve or reject vacation request based on shared outlook calendar and auto update outlook calendar

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 3

Hi community,

 

I want to create a flow that sends a person an auto approve or reject email for a vacation request based on this logic:

 

1. Associate sends vacation request via Microsoft Forms with a range of dates

2. Flow checks a shared Outlook Calendar. If there are already 4 associates on vacation during at least one of those days, then a rejection email is sent with the reasoning (ex: "There are already 4 associates on vacation on December 4th"). If there are less than 4 associates on vacation during the requested days, an approval email is sent.

3. If approval email is sent, the Outlook Calendar updates automatically with the new event

 

I found some premade templates that address part of what I want the flow to do, but not everything. Thanks for your help!

    Well, show your flow. Did you do something?

    This is what I have so far:

     

    I'm not sure if Get Calendar View of Events (V3) is the best or correct action to take. Also, for the condition, I want it to say if the count  of unique Calendar IDs is less than or equal to 4, but I can't figure out how to do that.
