Flow Steps:

Prsentday values:

Checking the following condition : Now() >= UserStartDateTime & Now() <= UserEndDateTime

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,

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

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.

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

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,
Eswar T
