Add Date time to Sharepoint

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 256

Hi All

 

I am looking to update a sharepoint list with Date/Time an action is completed.  The Column is specified as Date/Time.  Yet when I pass the value in my flow, using formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm'), it fails.  Anyone please advise where I am going wrong.

 

Thanks in Advance.

    Like all date functions in Power Automate (except formatDateTime(), of course), convertFromUtc() returns a valid date/time string.
    But why would you want to do that? The Sharepoint connectors expect a datetime in UTC.

    HI @Chriddle 

     

    Would this still work if I used convertfromutc?

    Your datetime format has to be according to ISO-8601.

    Just use utcNow() without formatDateTime()
