Excel Online Date Filtering to Send Email within the next 6 days

[forms-flows]

I've seen many solutions that almost get there but don't close the loops. I've spent way to much time trying to figure this out.

I need to connect to an Excel online file, find rows that have a date in the next 6 days and then send an email to a recipient listed in the excel file. 

It should be pretty easy but i'm struggling. 

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction? 

Thanks in advance!

As a side note, it also seems like most solutions were developed prior to Microsoft making some changes to some of the scripting tools?

Hi @forms-flows ,

The premise of using Excel online related actions is that the table has been defined in Excel file.

If this condition is met and is the same as you described, there is a date field and a recipient field. You could refer to the following method to configure Flow.

I have had test on my side, create a new Excel table containing two fields, Date and Recipient.

• Get all the rows using List rows present in a table action.
• Configure Filter array to filter Dates for rows within six days.

Expression reference:

@and(lessOrEquals(formatDateTime(item()['Date'], 'yyyy-MM-dd'), addDays(utcNow(), 6, 'yyyy-MM-dd')),greaterOrEquals(formatDateTime(item()['Date'], 'yyyy-MM-dd'), utcNow('yyyy-MM-dd')))

• Fill the filtered Recipient in Send an email action.

Please take a try.

Best Regards,
