Send Email based on date column

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 10

I have been having many issues when trying to automate a flow to send emails based on rent due date and late date in SP. I am getting the following error at the send email step in "ActionBranchingConditionNotSatisfied. The execution of template action 'Send_an_email_(V2)' skipped: the branching condition for this action is not satisfied." and no email is sent out. Below is a few screenshots.

    Hi @Avenue5 ,

    Do you want to check every day whether the following deadline is equal to today, and send an email notification if it is equal to today?

    If so, I did a test for your reference.

    In my scenario:

    Please go to Classic Designer.

    My complete flow:

    vyetonggumsft_1-1701140918901.png

    vyetonggumsft_4-1701141204975.png

    formatDateTime(items('Apply_to_each')?['Date'],'yyyy-MM-dd')
    utcNow('yyyy-MM-dd')

    Best Regards,

    Hi @Avenue5 ,

    Remove the 'For each' control, add the 'Apply to each' control, and use this expression.

     

    formatDateTime('Apply_to_each_2')['ColumnName'],'yyyy-MM-dd')
    formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-MMM-dd')

     

    Best Regards,

    Hi @Avenue5 ï¼Œ

    Is your loop outside the 'condition' control a 'For each' loop or an 'Apply to each' loop?

    Hi @Avenue5 ,

    1)Set the DateTime Format of the 'list rows present in a table' control to 'ISO 8601'

    vyetonggumsft_0-1701050871819.png

    2)Please set the time format on both sides of the 'condition' control to 'yyyy-MM-dd'.

    vyetonggumsft_2-1701050627222.png

     

    formatDateTime('For_each')['ColumnName'],'yyyy-MMM-dd')
    formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-MMM-dd')

     

    Best Regards,

    Hi @Avenue5 ,

    Please show the content filled in on both sides of your 'condition' control.
