Cloud flow to send email based on an upcoming event location no longer working

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2
Hi everyone. A while back I wanted to create some kind of automation that would change the color of some smart lights I have to red when I'm in a Teams meeting. Due to security I settled on creating a Power Automate flow to send an email to IFTTT which would then trigger the lights based on the subject in the email it received.
 
The setup that was working was
When an upcoming event is starting soon (V3)
If
Location contains Microsoft Teams
Send an email (V2)
Delay
Send an email (V2)
Else
End If
 
This is no longer working. It seems that "Microsoft Teams Meeting" is no longer the Location for these events. What else could I use? I tried if Body contains Microsoft Teams meeting, but that doesn't work either. I put non-Teams-meeting events on my calendar to block of time and would prefer if it didn't fire for those or for all day events, but I'm stumped.

    I suggest you check a flow run for a meeting where you expected the condition to be met and inspect the trigger output to see what the passed location value is. Once identified, update you flow condition accordingly.

    Since the flow doesn't run since the condition isn't met, how could I inspect a recent calendar event to see what the values are? I tried using the Get Events (V4) but I can't figure out how to filter events to just today's so I'm either getting the first items in my calendar or recurrences from future for holidays. Copilot is no help in trying to make this work.
