Hello,

I have a simple flow that creates a calendar event based off of a to-do task reminder event. The flow seems to have no issues with newly created tasks, however, repeat tasks do not appear to be triggering the flow as a "new task" all the time.

I have had mixed results. Here is an image of the flow logic.

The issue I'm seeing is that repeat tasks do not always process correctly or do not trigger the flow logic. Does anyone have thoughts on how I could improve this automation logic? I'm simply trying to sync to-do task reminders with google calendar events. I simply add 30min to the reminder time to calculate the 'ReminderEndTime' value.

It's worth reiterating that this is appears to specifically be an issue for tasks that repeat.

Additionally, I'd like to point out that all of the "repeat" tasks are generated with

"isReminderOn": false,

but have

"reminderDateTime": {

"dateTime": "2024-03-06T22:30:00",

"timeZone": "UTC"

}

and in this specific example, the repeat task generated a reminder based on an incorrect date, screenshot of the repeated task's reminder:

and the output of the 'ReminderDateTime' of the task:

Here my expectation is that the 'reminderDateTime' value would match that of the newly created task triggered by the recurrence of the previous task, but the new task reminder does not seem to be properly sent via the flow. The correct time is shown in To-Do (here Sat, Apr. 6th at 17:30), but reflected incorrectly in the response from the new task creation trigger.

I am having trouble understanding why these 'reminderDateTime' values do not match - and again, this specifically appears to be happening on tasks generated automatically from a repeat/recurrence.

I will continue to test and see if I can find a reason why this is so inconsistent.
