Create a due date for Task in MS Teams

[JanaBaldermann]

Hi all,

I've created flows where based on a mail or MS Forms a task in MS Teams is created. I want to add a due date which should be one working day after "receiving day" at 4pm. 

I can't find a way to do this. Can anyone help me?

Thanks!
Jana

You should be able to add a due date as the image below:

and then the formula:

addDays(utcNow(),1,'yyyy-MM-dd')

Hi @StretchFredrik,

thanks for the formula! That's already a great help. Is it possible to add somehow that the due date should not just be the next day but the next working day? So that if a mail comes in on Friday the due date is set to Monday?

Thanks!
Jana

For sure, you just have to make some if statements to check the following:

Use a dayOfWeek() expression - that will return Sunday as 0 and Saturday as 6.

How exactly does the formula have to look? and can 4pm be added to the due date as well?

For  me it returns the following error for the week days: Unable to process template language expressions in action 'Create_a_task' inputs at line '0' and column '0': 'The template language function 'DayOfWeek' expects a single parameter that is a timestamp. The function was invoked with '3' parameter(s). 

Thanks for your help! I'm a Newbie when it comes to Power Automate so I really appreciate it
