Formatting Google Calendar date format

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 24

Hello,

 

I created a flow for automated out of office replies based on google calendar events. The flow works great except for one thing. I am trying to add dynamic content to the body of the emails referring to the end time of the event.

However, by default, the date output from Google Calendar looks like this: 2018-11-25T12:56:00+00:00

 

I'd like the date of the dynamic content to be formatted like this: 25-11-2018.

 

Is it possible to achieve this through the use of expressions?

    Hi @nhafala,

     

    Could you please share a screenshot of the configuration of your flow?

     

    Please add a Compose action to save the end time of the event dynamic content.

    And then you could add a Compose 2 to formate the end time of the event, please refer to screenshot below to create th flow:

    The expression in the Compose 2 as below:

    formatDateTime(outputs('Compose'),'dd-MM-yyyy')

     

    Best regards,

    Alice
