Team Shifts notification as flow bot with modified time

Posted on by LA-07111402-0

I created a flow that will send a flow bot notification when a change is made in Team Shifts.
The bot works great, I am using the modified dates as a condition for the notifications.
What I found out is that the Save in the edit shift screen will generate a new modified date and then the share with team button will generate another new modified date. So my staff are getting 2 notifications if there was a change and 1 notification even if there was no change.
Does anyone know of a way I can stop the notifications from being sent on the first save button and only send the notifications to the affective employees on the share with team button?
I have one condition that will calculate that the change was 2 minutes ago, this eliminates any other change that was done earlier or on a different day.
Do I need to add more conditions?

Hi @Lisea123,

It's no need to add more conditions, your condition could properly approach your requirement. But one point you need to know is after you modified the Shift, share it should delay 2 minutes. For example, once you save the Flow, the Flow runs the first time check the modified time is less than 2 minutes ago and send a notification, then wait for two minutes, and click the share, the Flow will run the second time check the modified time is greater than 2 minutes ago and not send a notification.

The Teams Shifts app itself will timestamp the shift as being modified when I make the change and click save and then timestamp it again as being modified with a new time when I click share with Team.
so there will always be 2 flows ran as there will always be at least one of them that is within the 2 minute window,.
