Posted on by ClaireAllen 762

Hello Community,

I need your help please!

I'm in the process of building a flow, where I want to create an event, but I receive an error,

This is the steps that my flow takes, showing the run history.

Could anyone advise me on where I have gone wrong, and help fix my issue.

Thanks in advance

    Hello @ClaireAllen 

    In the Start Time and End Time fields you should use the format: yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ss. Therefore, you should use the following dates 2020-12-31T00:00:00 2020-12-31T23:59:59

    Regards,

    Ferran

    @fchopo ,

    Thanks for the information, I've resolved the issue as I had the incorrect configuration in my workflow, once I changed it the flow worked.

     

    This is how I configured the flow
