Does Flow work with Sharepoint Online Calendars?

Like (1) ShareShare

Posted on 24 Mar 2017 09:09:00 by 20

We have a vacation calendar (an actual calendar, not a custom list with calendar overlay). Flow does not seem to be working well with Sharepoint online Calendars. I'm trying to run an approval flow but it fails but I only get a notification that the flow failed and no other infomation is provided, once I click the notification I get forwarded to My Flows page. How should I troubleshoot my Flow?

    Re: Does Flow work with Sharepoint Online Calendars?
    Using search string only provided me with Display Name, Type, ObjectID, email was not shown, as a matter of fact I'm not getting emails for any of the users if I type in Get-AzureRmADUser to display the list of AzureAD users. Can it be a sync issue or is it something else?

    Hi totaluser1,

     

    That just means the UPN for the manager is not recognized in AAD.

     

    I invited @RajRa to look into this issue. Per his test, the results are inline (no output for invalid email ids)

    PS C:\Users\rajra> Get-AzureRmADUser -UserPrincipalName foo@microsoft.com
    PS C:\Users\rajra> Get-AzureRmADUser -UserPrincipalName food@microsoft.com
    PS C:\Users\rajra> Get-AzureRmADUser -UserPrincipalName rajra@microsoft.com

    DisplayName        Type          ObjectId
    -----------                ----              --------
    Raj Rangarajan                 15be008f-<Snipped>

     

    Please try to find what the real email id of the manager should be as in AAD. There are a couple of ways – for example:

    Get-AzureRmADUser -SearchString "raj" (shows all matches)

     

    Let us know if this helps

     

    Best regards,
    Mabel Mao

    Hello,

     

    So after I ran this command, no errors where shown, but no information showed up either, just an empty line below my command.

    Please see the screenshot attached.

    Hi Totaluser1,

     

    Can you make sure the Created By Email is the valid email id for the manager? AAD does expect the email id in different formats.

     

    One way is to look up your manager with this PowerShell command and make sure the email id is the correct format.

     

    Get-AzureRmADUser -UserPrincipalName <expected email of the manager>

     

    Best regards,

    Hi totaluser1,

     

    I am still confirming with this issue, and I have already reported this issue from my side, but I haven’t got a response.
    I will back to you once I got any updates.
    Thanks for your patience and understanding.

    I already checked Azure AD. Please see my previous messages 🙂

     

    As for Get manager input and output, here it is:

    Hi Totaluser1,

     

    Could you show me the error message of the action “Get manager”?
    Please make sure you have filled the manager field of the user in Azure Active Directory.

     

    Best regards,
