Issue with formatdatetime

Posted on by 287

I have a flow that produces an HTML table.  One of the date fields is throwing errors I believe because of a null value.

The field is currently 

formatDateTime(item()?['cr014_scheduledtoship'], 'M')
The flow in this area looks like:

I tried using several variations but can't get the syntax for @empty to work.

 

Can anyone help me with the correct syntax?

 

Thanks

    Hello @astrontelstar ,

    I'd try it as below:

    if(empty(item()?['cr014_scheduledtoship']),'',formatDateTime(item()?['cr014_scheduledtoship'], 'M'))
