Add an event to outlook via sharepoint calendar

[Anonymous]

Hi,

Ive created an app for training registration. At the moment its all working apart from when i add an event to my outlook calendar the event shows as starting on the day i have added it and ending on the start time of the event on the sharepoint calendar.

I want it so that it just adds the event to the outlook calendar for the starting date shown on the event.

Please see images for more details.

Regards,

David

Hi @Anonymous,

I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve. I saw that you mentioned that you also need the ending on the start time of the event on the sharepoint calendar. Not sure what did you mean by this part. I saw in your screenshot that it mostly looks like your are using a Form control. If this form's data source is outlook calendar, then I'm afraid that you cannot then also add a SharePoint calendar data source to the end time. As one form can only have one data source so far. If you want to update Outlook calendar together with SharePoint calendar, you might want to use Patch function.

@v-monli-msftSorry for my bad explaination.

What you explained in the last part of your message was correct. Im trying to put an event in outlook via sharepoint calendar data.

This is the formula im currently using. How would i encorpurate the patch function into it or would i need a new formula ?

Office365.V2CalendarPostItem(ddCalendar.Selected.Value, 
BrowseGallery1.Selected.Title, 
Text(BrowseGallery1.Selected.EventDate,DateTimeFormat.ShortTime), 
Text(BrowseGallery1.Selected.EndDate,DateTimeFormat.UTC), 
{Body: BrowseGallery1.Selected.Description, 
IsHtml: true, 
Location:BrowseGallery1.Selected.Location});
UpdateContext({CalButton:false});UpdateContext({CalButtonDone:true})
