Hi,

Can anyone please help as one of my flows in Power automate throws an error "Unable to process template language expressions for action 'Condition' at line '0' and column '0': 'The template language function 'int' was invoked with a parameter that is not valid. The value cannot be converted to the target type.'" . I have a Microsoft list wherein it contains the employees birth date and month number, and I have created a flow if today's date and month equals employee birthday date and month then he/she will receive an email with the picture embedded in an email body.

Hi

Please show the how the condition has been configured AND please also show us the actual data that is being checked.

You can add a compose action before the condition action, containing the exact data in the exact format that is being compared in the condition: today's date and birthday.

Hi,

You can use the below condition with formatting date

formatDateTime(utcNow(), 'MM-dd') is equal to formatDateTime(items('Apply_to_each')?['BirthDate'], 'MM-dd')

I am still getting an error after modifying the condition to formatdatetime.
