Auto response on a specific day - return wrong date

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla...

Hello, I hope you can help me fix my flow. 

I am setting up an auto response for Tuesdays (my day off of the week). Somehow the auto response is sent on Wednesday (and maybe other day as well, as I was told). Maybe it's something to do with the timezone? Can you help me fix it?

    Hello @Anonymous ,

    your start time in the "Set up automatic replies" action must be formatted and converted in your right timezone.

    So, for instance you can use this expression:

    formatDateTime(convertTimeZone(utcNow(),'UTC','AUS Eastern Standard Time'),'MM-dd-yyyy')

     

    If I have answered your question, please mark your post as Solved.
    If you like my response, please give it a Thumbs Up.

    Hi Marco,

    Thank you for your response.

    Sorry for asking more questions, I'm totally new at Power Automate. I put in the expression that you suggested and it returned invalid.
