When An Event is Modified (V3) - Expression & Condition Help

Like (0) ShareShare

Posted on 16 Dec 2022 17:51:10 by 18

Hello all. I have created a workflow for when a calendar event is modified in outlook. Updates have been made to the workflow based on my original post found here: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/When-An-Event-is-Modified-V3-Workflow-Help/m-p/1763828?lightbox-message-images-1708217=498066iEF4EE2F844ADA20B#M194984.

 

The goal of the workflow is for it to accept modified events if no scheduling conflicts exist, and to decline if a conflict does exist. Where I'm running into a wall is updating the expression on the condition in the workflow. Currently the expression is: length(outputs('Get_events_(V4)')?['body/value']), does not work properly. I am requesting assistance on determining the correct expression to use here. Screenshot of workflow is below for reference, please let me know if you have any questions.

    @v-liwei-msft: following up to confirm next steps on this one. Issue I am running into is finding the appropriate action in Power Automate to get a list of records. Please let me know if you have any questions.

    @v-liwei-msft: thanks, I appreciate your help. My apologies for the delayed reply, I was out of the office for a few weeks.

    @Shaboo992 clarified that the issue is having a step to get the list of records, and have that be the output for the condition. My question at this point is what action in power automate should I use to get the list of records (calendar events on the day requested).

    Hi @ssuttonhsc 

     

    According to your screenshot, you have to write the formula correctly.
    Could you please tell me what your question is?

     

    Best Regards,

    Levi

    Hiya,

     

    The length only work if you get the list of records, so instead of Get event(v4) add a new step to get a list of records then add a condition, the condition is output of the list value items, if the item list = 0, 1 then you can branch out.

     

    Regards
