create shared calendar event

Hi Folks,

I have used one of the flow templates which is press a button to send my manager a message that I am sick.

This works great but I was hoping that there could be a way that I could then get this to create an item in our leave calendar which is a shared calendar we all have access to.

Does anyone know if this is even possible at this stage?

Hi @Anonymous ,

What do you mean by having a Calendar list in SharePoint, when create a new item in the list, send a message to the manager?

If this is the case, please refer to the following method to configure Flow.

Use When an item is created as the trigger, select "Enter custom value" when configuring List Name, and then manually enter the name of Calendar List.

Use Get Manager (V2) action to get the manager of the user who created the list.

Finally, configure the item details in the email.

Hope it helps.

Best Regards

Hi, sorry I don't think I explained myself correctly. I didn't mean to say a calendar list, I meant a shared calendar.

We have a shared calendar for my team called "ICT Leave Calendar" I was wanting to use the update calendar function to populate that the user who pressed the "I'm sick today" button to create an entry on that calendar. Unfortunately, it only shows the default calendar names of the user.

I somehow managed to get the leave calendar to show in the list of available calendars but it doesn't show in the list if any of my staff edit the flow. Is there any way to get the calendar to show in their list because it just showed for me and i didn't do anything to get it there?

If i select that calendar the workflow is okay for me because i have that calendar in my list but for the other members of the team it fails because they dont have that in their list even though they all have the calendar added in outlook and it shows in the OWA as being added to their account

Hi @Anonymous ,

You can try to have them configure create event (V2) action's connection using their own account.

Please take a try.

Hi Anonymous,

Could you please share the required steps to show the shared calendar in the provided event calendar field.
It's not showing up for the shared calendar I'm part of.
