Posted on by Thausd 4

I'm new in power automate and

I need to delete emails from a folder that are more than 30 days old.

 

But the following expression "received:<@{formatDateTime(addDays(utcNow(), -30), 'yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ')}" is not working.

can you help me?

    Hi @Thausd ,

     

    It seems like this will work, please let me know.

     

    So convert your 'received time' dynamic content to 'yyyy-MM-dd' to match your addDays.
