To customize your profile, ‘My Settings’ in the dropdown menu. When you create your account, you can upload your own avatar and link to your social media profiles to give your profile your personal touch!

 

Tip: Your profile settings here are also for accounts on the PowerApps and Microsoft Stream communities. Any edits you make under ‘My Settings’ are consistent with your profiles on the PowerApps and Stream communities. Super convenient!

    I have created a flow to send a calendar invite to the recipients, The flow works well, means the recipient received the invite and can respond to it, however when I check the flow report, it shows as an error (please refer pic attached).
