Trigger first monday of the month

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by shobana 5

Hi all,

Looking to build a flow that sends out a reminder email for documentation on the first Monday of the month. Can someone point me in the right direction of how I might go about doing this?

 

thinking of using this as the trigger condition @lessOrEquals(dayOfWeek(utcNow()),1)

    Hi @shobana,

     

    Have a look at this approach from @tom_riha, using the current day and check if it is less than 8 as a trigger condition together with a week frequency:

    Below is an example of that approach.

     

    1. Use the interval of 1 and week frequency and the selection of the Monday in the on these days field.

    2. You can add this expression as a trigger condition to your recurrence action.

    @less(int(utcNow('dd')),8)
