Need some help creating my first flow!
I wanted to send out an email once someone booked an appointment in the booking calendar that had specific information and attachments. I see that there are no flows for the booking application so I was trying to create a work around. When somebody books an appointment it then creates a calendar event. I wanted to pull the email address from that event and then send an email to that person with specific info and attachments. Is this even possible or should I wait for them to create flows for the bookings app?
Hi @shafii ,
So why the to field is null?
You need to troubleshooting it or share the screenshot of run history.

I get the same error message. It says the TO field is empty and cannot be empty. I have done all of the Dynamic content for attendees but nothing seems to work (optional, required, organizer, and resource). It doesn't make sense to me why it is not pulling the information b/c I see it finds the correct email address in the"GET EVENT" step. In the final step it errors b/c for some reason the email from step 2 doesn't get send to the final step. When I manually put an email in the TO field on the lats step it worked as planned. So somewhere between step 2 and 3 I am hitting a snag.
Hi @shafii ,
What is the value of the OPTIONAL ATTENDEE dynamic content?
Please save the OPTIONAL ATTENDEE dynamic content in a Compose and run the flow to check the value.

I typed in my email address in the TO field and it worked. For some reason when I try to use the dynamic content from the EVENT, it does not work.
I reviewed the GET EVENT fields and I see the OPTIONAL ATTENDEES data. So the correct email address is getting pulled. However when I use that OPTIONAL ATTENDEE dynamic content for the send email it will not work. Is there something I am missing that connects these two steps?
I kjeep getting to the end and it stops. I am not for sure why it says the field cannot be empty bc I have info in those fields. Thoughts?
Hi @shafii ,
The screenshot of the flow should as below(I use mail connector since I don't have outlook connector permission):

Hi @shafii
yes, you can get attachments if they are getting stored in One drive or SharePoint.
You should use
1) "Get Files" Action to get all the files (attachments) and their properties
2) "Get File content" Action to get the file content and send it in email
Following link had the solution on how to send email attachment for your reference.

ok I will try that and see if that works for the email address. The attachment I need to send is stored in onedrive/sharepoint. Once the flow pulled the email using V3 coult it then pull that attachment from there to send you think?
Hi @shafii
yes you can do that using "When a new event is created (V3)" trigger, you will get the associated properties for the event. but i am not sure if you get the attachment in invite from APP so that part may not work?
Regards,
The booking app sends a calendar invite to outlook and creates a calendar event. Can I pull the email address from that event to then send an email since outlook has connectors?
