Hello guys,
 
I have two strings, that cannot be changed  before being input into th correct fields in the "create a teams meeting" function in MS flow.  I'm always getting the following errors with parseDateTime and formatDate Time functions:
 
formatDateTime(outputs('Termin'),'yyyyddMMThh:mm:ss')
 
How can I convert the string reading '18.11.2024 16:30' to a ISO 8601-frindly format in that specific step?
 
 
Thank you in advance

    You can try the parseDateTime function:
     
    parseDateTime('18.11.2024 16:30', 'en-gb','dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm')
     
    will return 2024-11-18T16:30:00.0000000

    Shouldn't the format be yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ
