Hi Guys,,
I have a file that needed to be copied into other file.
But the raw file have a column that have both date and time.
I only want to get the date and omit the time.
And this is my flow
"string '' was not valid"
Empty string again, there is a row with empty date or something you do above select that clear the value...
In the topic you posted, look at the error message, you'll see a date instead of ''. His problem is ISO format and I would suggest him to change his format pattern from dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm to yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ which is the ISO format.
And I found this same problem, but they were not able to figure out the problem.
The responder says here that he must break apart the and rearrange to the correct formatting.
I found the problem for that last error. And my error comes back again to ISO format.
here is the error now,,
The execution of template action 'Select' failed: The evaluation of 'query' action 'where' expression '{
"Add date": "@formatDateTime(item()?['Add date'], 'd')"
}' failed: 'In function 'formatDateTime', the value provided for date time string '' was not valid. The datetime string must match ISO 8601 format.'.
Hi,
Well I'm french, so date format match my location settings, the expression will match yours.
But instead of using short date format pattern you can force the format you want :
if(empty(item()?['Paid Date']), '', formatDateTime(item()?['Paid Date'], 'MM/dd/yyyy'))
My filter do nothing more than selecting row where Title contains 'Test', I just set it up to get the output to match your flow.
[Edit] my Excel location settings is french but power automate ones is english, see results 😉
