Filter Query Event Attendee then Delete All Events

[joshobrien]

Hi, 

New to Power Automate/Flow and still getting my head around it all. 

However have an issue with one flow I can't seem to figure out. 

What I want to do is find all events where a particular person is an attendee, then delete/cancel all those events. However what I have currently keeps failing with the filter query for the attendee.

Any help to point out where I'm going wrong, or help with making what I'm trying to do work would be greatly appreciated.

Hey @joshobrien 

What's your error?  Is it "could not find the property names requiredAttendees"?

In this case it would suggest the property is not available during the filter?  I also thought that potentially we could use the expression contain as presumably this person will be 1 of many potential attendees and is therefore not equal but if the field is not supported by the filter, you have to look at alternatives.

Having reviewed https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/office365/#get-events-(v4) and tested the filter on Title eq 'Test Event' - which works - I believe that the above field isn't available as it isn't a string or number column.

So, if you were to perform the get events action on all events, you can then use a filter array action where the email is contained within the output of the get events action.

The output of the filter array can then be used for your delete apply to each.
