Sharpoint Calendar Events to Outlook Calendar - Failed Flow Date/Time

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 6

Hi All,

 

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

 

I have started to create my flow to pull calendar events from sharepoint to outlook. The flow worked when inputting a manual entry in the start & end time, but this pulled all events down on one day in Outlook.  I then tried to use the the dynamic content start and end times from sharepoint list. 

 

It fails and gives this error :

Flow save failed with code 'OpenApiOperationParameterValidationFailed' and message 'Input parameter 'item' validation failed in workflow operation 'Create_event_(V4)': The parameter with value '"@items('Apply_to_each')?['EventDate']"' in path 'item/start' with type/format 'String/date-time' is not convertible to type/format 'String/date-no-tz'.'.

 

So far I have got :

The sharepoint list displays this for start and end times.

I have tried a few solutions shown around it seems to allow the flow to run but then fails afterwards,

    Hi @rhys20221,

     

    It looks in your first screenshot you have entered the formatdatetime function as plain text. And as far as I am aware the Create event date fields also require a different format compared to the one you are using.

     

    Can you try to use the expression below and see if that works for you:

    formatdatetime(items('Apply_to_each')?['EventDate'], 'o')
