    You are receiving this error because you are trying to place a value somewhere in the Create event (V4) 2 action which has a null value.

     

    It is unable to make something out of nothing.

     

    You will need to troubleshoot to find which values you are getting prior to this are coming up blank. Or ensure that if they are null that you are inserting valid replacement values.

    Hi @ ThomasDK,

     

    Do you have Date and Time Column in SharePoint and use it as the content of the Start time and End time of the Create event action?

    Could you please show me more about your flow? I assume you have this in flow and have a test on my side, please try the following workaround:

    I created two columns of type date and time and made sure that the field has a value.

    Set the Start time to

    formatDateTime(triggerOutputs()?['body/Starttime'])

    Set the End time to

    formatDateTime(triggerOutputs()?['body/Endtime'])

     

    Best Regards,

    Zhi Chen
