Adding days to partial date (07-Feb)

[wiredup]

Hello PA network,

Seems simple and maybe I'm missing something. 

I am being presented with a date as text = "07-Feb" ... I just need to be able to add 6 days to it.  

I have tried a bunch of ways to make this work to no avail.

Any recommendations?

Try the following expression:

addDays(concat(outputs('Compose'),'-',concat(utcNow('yyyy'))),6,'dd-MMM')

This expression

• inserts the current YEAR to the date using the concat() function: YEAR-07-FEB so we get 2022-07-FEB
• Add 6 days
• Format the output of the addDays() function as dd-MM to get 13-Feb

Here is the flow's runtime output:
