Hi Folks,
I'm trying to build a flow which forwards a specific instance of a meeting series to a user on button click from canvas app. For non-recurring meetings I was able to use below work around:
Is there anyway to achieve the same for single instance of a meeting series?
Thank you.
Hi @rbn_nue,
I am very much a newbie with power automate…would you be able to further expand on this bit. I am trying to connect a list on SharePoint. Essentially, when an entry is created, I want one instance of a recurring meeting to go out. I appreciate all of the help!
Hi @juhbenike
If you would like forward only specific meeting instance in a meeting series, you need to provide that meeting instance ID to graph API. It will only forward that instance. To get all instances of a meeting series you can utilize Get calendar view of events action in power automate, then select/filter the meeting based on day/time.
In any case, you will need the meeting ID (at least) to forward it using graph api forward event.
Hope this cleared it up.
Thanks.
Thank you!
Will it only forward the next meeting invite in time? Say, it is Thursday and the next meeting is on next Tuesday, will it only forward the next Tuesday event? How will the graph decide which meeting to forward?
I am sorry for the lack of my knowledge here and thank you for your prompt response!
Hi @juhbenike ,
This issue was resolved by using graph api forward event - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/event-forward?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http
To get individual instances of recurring meeting, you can use below action:
You can make the API call from any of the http actions in power automate to forward each instance:
Http action (premium), Send an http request (outlook, preview) or Http with Azure AD which I ended up using. Hope this helps!
Thanks.
Dear responders,
Am I wrong or the single event vs. recurring event invite issue has not been addressed in this thread?
I only see the all attendees vs. invited attendee notification issue resolved.
Thanks!
Hi @v-xiaochen-msft ,
Appreciate your response. The challenge while using http action is the authentication. It will need us to register graph api in AAD so that we can authenticate. This will be an overhead. But the send an http request to outlook action has the authentication part covered. Only concern is it being preview mode.
Thank you.
Hi @rbn_nue ,
I tested it with forward api again few minutes ago and it worked.
I must have made some mistake when I first tested. 😂

Hi @rbn_nue ,
Sorry ,I don't have this information.
But don't worry , the flow has many methods to call the api such as Http action...It's GA.

Hi Wearsky @v-xiaochen-msft ,
Appreciate your response, the forward invite worked fine from my end:
Although, what concerns me now is that the action used is still in preview. Since we will be using the app in production, not sure if we should employ this (it did work for every scenario). Could you please let me know if there's any timeline when this will be GA or is it safe to use now?
Thank you
Hi @rbn_nue ,
I tested this api (forward) few days ago... But it caused an error. It looks that the api don't support series meeting.. So I suggest use update event api instead of this.
