Hi,
I'm having an issue with passing due date from Excel to Planner. I'm using "List Rows Present in a Table" then using Apply to "Add a Task". Each time i run the flow, i get the error that the Due Date can be read (it changes the date to the integer equivalent). There are various suggestion on this site pointing using the function
Share
ReportaddDays('1900-01-01',int(items('_')?['Date']))
and others advising
addDays('1899-12-30',float(items('_')?['Date']))
I have tried both but when I try to save the flow I always an error "The template validation failed: 'The repetition action(s) '_' referenced by 'inputs' in action 'Create_a_task' are not defined in the template.'. Any suggestions on why this is happening?
Hi @pmc101,
Just like @Jay-Encodian said, the expression you create is not correct. When used inside a repeating action over an array, return the current item in the array during the action's current iteration and return the current item from each cycle in a for-each loop. Use this function inside the for-each loop. You can get the values from that item's properties. by the expression item() or items('<loopName>').
In your Flow, it should be item() or items('Apply_to_each_1') .

Hey @pmc101
So, I mocked this up... and the following works:
Expression: addDays('1899-12-30',int(item()?['Due Date']),'yyyy-MM-dd')

Hey @pmc101
I don’t think you’re passing the correct value inside the int expression.
I'll mock something up and test.
