Delete Calendar Item when List Item is Deleted

[LauraG1]

Hi 

I am looking to delete a calendar item once an item is deleted in sharepoint - I have read a few posts about this and thought I had it all right but it is not working - the condition is always false - see screenshots below - any help is appreciate.

Hi @LauraG1 

The issue is that in the comparison, you're comparing the body of the HTML to Text (that is, a string that is covered by the body of an element that contains a lot of other elements) with an id (an int value), that's why the comparison will always be false. In the end, you're comparing something like 1 to "[{id:123,.....}]"

You need to change the left parameter with the ID value you get inside the body of the calendar action (the calendar value ID).

Does it make sense?

Cheers
Manuel

HI @LauraG1 

Sorry about that, but you're almost there. You changed the left side correctly. Now just Remove the string expression and add the SharePoint "ID" that you had before, and it should work.

Cheers

Hi @manuelstgomes 

Apologies for the massive delay

This still is not working - any other ideas?

Hi @LauraG1,

When adding the the item to the SharePoint list did you write the ID as the event ID and not the generated ID? If not, then you might need to change what you compare in your condition, like subject etc.

I hope this helps.
