Create Event (V4) Not adding to calendar

[AngelaHug]

I have created an approval flow when a staff member submits a time off request form. (the trigger is a form submission) Everything work good with the approval process but at the end I have set it up to create an event on the calendar for the days they will be taking off. The flow works through all approvals and sends emails fine but does not add it to our calendars. Need Help Please!

Create event adds the event to the calendar of the user who is executing the flow. Since this flow uses an automated trigger that would be the calendar of the maker of the flow.  Using an automated flow I don't think there is a way to create an event in someone else's calendar.  For that it would need to be a manually triggered instant flow.

I am the user who is executing the flow but it also does not show up on my calendar. If I can at least make it do that, then I can manually add the other people who need to know about the time off.

Can you show me the values that are being used for Start Date and End Date?  Are they being formatted as ISO 8601 Dates including time?

The trigger for the entire flow is a time off request form submission, so the start and end dates are dynamic content pulling from that form. screenshot attached.

adding another screen shot of the form itself so. you can see the date format

Given that formatting I think you'll need to add a FormatDateTime() function around the dates when you enter them into the Create event.  The create event is expecting a standard ISO 8601 Date time for UTC.  The value you are supplying isn't in ISO 8601 format and doesn't include a time.

Thanks I will try that.
