I'm building a flow that will create a SharePoint Event Calendar item. The users have entered the start and end dates in a form. How do I make this an all day event?
I am trying to copy events from one SharePoint calendar to another Sharepoint calendar using Power Automate. It works just fine for events where user has selected start time and end time. If the user has selected All day event. The copy flow spans it across two days. Can someone please help?
@leoriosan i'm not sure if you found a solution but it can be done using a 'Send an HTTP request to SharePoint' and "fAllDayEvent" : "True"
That is correct. Modern SP calendaring is entirely underwhelming and does not meet basic functionality needs, and how the check boxes are not an editable or taggable field by Power Automate is perplexing. Normally there's at least some way to workaround issues like this, but I've exhausted google and everything I can come up with to make this work and settled on the calendar view.
The problem with this is that when you create a SharePoint list and then create a calendar view, it cannot be connected to Outlook. Only calendars created using the SP calendar app can be connected, and there is no way within Power Automate to tick the check boxes 🙄
So the easiest way to do this is to actually have a normal list in calendar view instead of a calendar app/event list. I tried six ways to sunday to get it to work with the calendar app to no avail. A normal list with a calendar view set to default solved my problem.
My scenario is a vacation calendar for my employees. I have a form with start/end dates, employee name, and employee email address. After an approval, I add a row to a spreadsheet for my own tracking and then create an item in the list with the data from the spreadsheet. End result is a single entry in the calendar view with no times.
I've been searching for answers on this one and all the way back in 2015 this was a problem. I just created a tax calendar for the business. 1500 rows inserted. Flipping these one by one to All Day just to get the time off the calendar display is really not a good solution.
Hi @Anonymous ,
I have made a test on my side and couldn't find a way to add the All Day Event to the sharepoint Calendar list so we could see the column in flow, as @ChristianAbata said, I'm afraid that there is no any way to achieve the requirement.
