I want to create a flow as the following:
Trigger: When a new email arrives in the inbox which will contain (ICS) format
ICS = Meeting on Outlook calendar
Step 1: Parse certain text from the ICS
Step 2: Send parsed variables to API
Is this possible?
Hi @aishak12,
You could retrieve the attachment and convert the contentBytes to a string with the base64tostring function.
Below is an example.
base64tostring(outputs('Get_Attachment_(V2)')?['body/contentBytes'])
1. The flow setup
2. A test run with an ICS attachment with its properties in a readable format.
You can use for example a indexof function to find specific property of that ICS file.
Thank you this worked. Could you show how to parse selected text from the output now? I would like to parse this link.
Thank you
Did you ever figure out how to parse the text above?I am facing a similar challenge!
Thank you,
Tom
