Delete Series of Group Calendar Events

[IPC_ahaas]

I have a Form that lets employees submit vacation days in a Form. That Form then sets off a Power Automate Flow which creates calendar events on a Group Calendar. Now we need a way for them to cancel vacation requests. Each Event created has the ID of the original Form submission (ex. ID: 1234).

I see there is a "Delete event (V2)" action. How can I find the ID of events that match specific criteria based on invitee and/or description?

Hi @IPC_ahaas,

Could you please tell me that which special event do you want to delete, how could you get this event?

You should firstly get the special event and delete it by its ID, here is a simple flow:

I hope to get the event by the event description, which would be "ID: 1234" or something like that. I am populating that value at the event creation.

This is a Group Calendar, so there is no "Get events (V4)", only the following:

Hi @IPC_ahaas,

You're going to need to use the "Send an HTTP request" action to get the events then loop through them.

If you don't know the group Id, you would need to first use the "List groups that I own or belong to", an "Apply to each" action with a condition to retrieve the Id of the group by its name or something. This only needs to be done once and can be removed once you get the group Id.

Graph Explorer | Try Microsoft Graph APIs - Microsoft Graph can be used to build the URI and see the response.

I hope this helps.

I have the GroupID. I see there are three Send an HTTP request... actions:

Both the Office 365 Users and Office 365 Outlook are looking for a URI. The link you provided is a little daunting. When I click on "group's events" it gives me a giant array of data. Is that the URI?

Hi @IPC_ahaas,

You should use the office 365 groups Send HTTP request and use the URI from that link (but remember to use your own group Id). The value property will have all the events from the specific group and that is what you will need to loop through.

I hope this screenshot helps
