I am trying to do a flow that sends a birthday email to all users in my domain. The condition says that if the current date contains the date of birth (day and month),

 

 

If string(item()) contains string(formatDateTime(utcNow(),'MM-dd"'))

 

But the flow shows me this error:

 

InvalidTemplate. No se pueden procesar las expresiones de lenguaje de plantilla para la acción 'Condición' en la línea '1' y la columna '2646': 'No se admite el parámetro de formato "MM-dd"" de la función de lenguaje de plantilla "formatDateTime". El formato debe ser un carácter especificador de formato único y válido (como "d" o "g") o un patrón de formato personalizado válido (como "'MMMM dd, yyyy" o "hh:mm:ss.ff"). Para obtener información, consulte las cadenas de formato de fecha y hora estándar y las cadenas de formato de fecha y hora personalizadas de .NET Framework.'.

 

Could somebody help me out

thanks

    It looks like you have a double quote at the end of you date format - remove it and I think that will resolve the issue.

    Hi @alexaristide ,

     

    Please take a try with expression below if you want the minute to be 0:

    formatDateTime(utcNow(),'yyyy-MM-ddTHH:00:ssZ')
