Button to block calendar suits it 5 times then says it fails?

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Just trying to use the simple template to block outlook calendar for one hour, connecting from my iPhone app.  It appears to work, then I see my calendar has 5 meetings booked and the flow says that it failed when I look at the activity.  How can I fix this?

Thanks,

Denise

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    Would you please share any screenshot of the flow running details(login in with Microsoft Flow web portal, then check the running details)?

    Troubleshooting a flow

    The template is simple, which only contains a flow button as the trigger, and the following create Event Action.

    I just tested it again from my side, which works as expected.

    Regards,

    Michael

    I seem to be having issues inserting a screen shot.

     

    But its just "manually trigger a flow", followed by "create event".

     

    It does create the meeting though, just not as cleanly as I would like.  I trigger it from my phone too.

    Hi,

    I deleted the original flow, then recreated it without entering any additional information.  This time it worked.
