Create Outlook Event when adding item in Sharepoint Lists

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

Hi all - I'm fairly new to Power Automate so please bear with me here. I've tried googling what I'm looking for but I'm not getting the right answers. 

 

In a nutshell - I have created a Project Tracker using Microsoft Lists. When a new item is added to the list, I want an event to be added to the outlook calendar of the person the item is assigned to. I'd also like the calendar event to be updated if the List item is updated (i.e if dates move, the event moves, and it doesn't create another event)

 

Currently, I have set this up so it works for anything I assign to myself, but when I add an item and assign it to a colleague, it sends the calendar invite from my calendar - so it appears in both mine and my colleagues.

Can someone please help me set this up correctly?

    Hi @KBT,

    Do you mean that you could only assign event to other users from your calendar?

    Could you please share a bit more about your scenario?

     

    I am afraid currently this is not possible under Microsoft Flow.

    Actually, creating Event under Microsoft Flow would require the Flow editor to sign-in office 365 outlook, and currently the authentication can't be configured as available Input under Microsoft Flow.

     

    As the Authentication requires the user to enter their own credentials, currently there is no way for Microsoft Flow to accept the user information and then finish the authentication.

     

    Using team flow only allows the added user to configure the Flow, there is no way to have the Flow Action change its Connection authentication information, currently.

     

    Here is a similar idea you could vote for:
