Birthday Message Google Contacts

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Sorry newbie here..... I am trying to create a flow to send birthday messages to my Google Contacts.  I have already stated the flow to find the calendar entry (this is working).  But I then want to find the contact and extract the DOB so I can work out the age.  I have added the Get my contacts (google) action, but it gets ALL contacts and also cannot see the birthday field.

 

Has anyone done this, or can help?

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    Power Automate 'Get My Contacts' action doesn't return the birthdates.

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/googlecontacts/#get-my-contacts-v4

     

    Your only option is implement via Google REST API

     

    https://developers.google.com/people/api/rest/v1/people

     

    To execute the REST API you need to use the premium Power Automate connector action step  HTTP
