Increment date in email

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I want to send a weekly email (I've set up the occurrence fine) that has a date range in the body of the email that increments by one week each time (falling on the Tuesday).  For example:

 

On Thursday 19th May, an email will be sent with text in it that says " 01 July 2021 to 17 May 2022".

On Thursday 26th May, an email will be sent with text in it that says "01 July 2021 to 24 May 2022".

Etc.

 

My flow is pretty basic - it just has two steps - the recurrence then the sending of the email. How do I set up that date incrementing in the body of the email?

 

Thanks everyone.

    Please try:

    Expressions:

     

    startOfMonth(addDays(utcNow(),-2),'dd MMMM yyyy')
     
    addDays(utcNow(),-2,'dd MMMM yyyy')
     
    Result:

    Best Regards,

    Bof

    Hey Bof!

     

    Yes, that worked!  I just tweaked addDays(utcNow(),-2,'dd MMMM yyyy') to be -1 instead of -2 as I guess it doesn't count today's date.  

     

    Thanks so much 🙂
