Hi,

What I have made is a flow that first gets today's date and then searches in the SharePoint-list column "Datum" for that exact date.
And if date is a match then get the value of the column "Between" of that day.

But i get an error:

String was not recognized as a valid DateTime. Creating query failed.

P.

Hello @CU16021406-1,

Error usually occurs because the date format in the Power Automate filter query does not match the format expected by the SharePoint Date column. Please change the date format to 'yyyy-MM-dd'. It will work.

Datum eq '@{formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-MM-dd')}'

Expects the date in yyyy-MM-dd, so using this format should resolve the issue.
