Email with User Options and Delay Until Reminder

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by vlr516 52

I am working on a flow that will send a timesheet reminder every Friday morning. My flow looks like: 

  • Schedule Recurrence 1 time a week on Friday at 9:00am
  • Get my profile (v2)
  • Send email with options with options, "Already Submitted" and "Snooze"

I'm having difficulty on the next part. If the person selects "Snooze", I'd like the email to send a reminder email at 2:30pm EST. 

If I set up a condition where the SelectedObject is equal to "Snooze", then delay until... ---this is where I'm not sure what to put in the timestamp field or anything else I need to initialize or set before sending out the reminder.

    Just discovered a function.

     

    convertTimeZone(Concat(Formatdatetime(utcnow(),'yyyy-MM-dd'),'T14:30'),'Eastern Standard Time','UTC','yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mmZ')

     

    That gives me 2021-03-03T19:30Z ?

    I found a sample : addHours(utcNow('yyyy-MM-dd'), 14,'yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mmZ) but didn't know how to make it 2:30 as well as convert then to Eastern Standard Time.

    Hi @vlr516 

     

    You can specify a delay to a time of day. Delay until.

     

    Concat(Formatdatetime(utcnow(),’yyyy-Mm-dd’),’T14:30’)

     

    this is based on UTC, not sure what your time difference is. You can add hours using addhours expression if need be.
