Dear Team Members,

 

1) I have a Sharepoint list in which leave start day and leave end end date of Leave are applied, I want to check if todays date matches and then send a email to my manager with list of all employee names.

 

Logic Used :

Now() >= StartDate & Now() <= Date

 

Flow Steps:

Getting an error with the filter query when executing:

 

 

 

 

Checked my Json value as well :

Both the column values are of type strings.

 

Can you please help me with the completion of the flow and were I am going wrong in the query.

 

Thank you very much,

    I have tried changing the format the dates value to yyyy-mm-dd as suggested.

    Now i get the present day value to be a day before :

    Again I tried to revert back the code to dd-mm-yyyy in this case i get the present date (2/2/2021).

     

    But in both cases the output of  filter of get Items shows values that are of previous years:

    Kindly suggest.

     

    Thanks,

    You may need to try to format the dates as 'yyyy-mm-dd'

    Thank you so much for the reply, I am able to get the flow running but I am not getting the correct values.

     

    Query:

    The query has returned the results that are for previous years as well.

    I see the problem now. Your filter query isn't formatted correctly. The trigger body would be a recurrence which doesn't have a 'FirstDayOfLeave'.

    It needs to be in the format ColumnName ge PresentDate and ColumnName2 le PresentDate. 

    See this other thread: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/FLOW-Get-Items-Filter-SharePoint-list-on-Date/td-p/85238

    Dear jdoss,

     

    I have added the first day into variables and this is the error I am getting.

    Add the formatted first day of leave and formatted last day of leave into variables as well and see what is returning there.
