Using SP List Dates to create Calendar Event workflow

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by BIMSupport 10

I see there a couple other posts on this topic, but the solutions did not fix my issue.  I am automating a HR Onboarding Process and would like to create a calendar event triggered by a new item being added to a SharePoint List and use the Employee's Start Date (entered into the SharePoint list) as the event date.  

 

Based on other posts I have tried formatting the event's date and time in the following ways with no success:   (StartDate is the name of the field I am selecting from the Dynamic Content menu.)

 

'StartDateT09:00:00'

'"StartDate"T09:00:00'

''StartDate'T09:00:00'

'"Start_x0020_Date"T09:00:00'

(triggerOutputs()?['body/Start_x0020_Date]T09:00:00)

Any thoughts?

    Hi @BIMSupport,

     

    Please not add single quotes and double quotes into the Start date and End dates fields:
