I'm still pretty new to the power platform and could use some help writing a complex expression for my specific scenario.
I have a scheduled flow that pulls from a SharePoint list to generate a report. I have a "SLA" column that needs the date formatted and converted into Pacific Standard Time
The screenshot shows my current expression that works great with the formatting, but I can't figure out how to include the convertFromUtc into my expression. I have tried to write it several ways with no luck. Please help me get this to also display in Pacific Standard Time.
Thanks!

It might be easier for you to use a convertTimeZone() expression rather than the action. Substitute a convertTimeZone expression for your formatDateTime expression in your select action. The expression will also allow you to format the date/time string.

Thank you for your response. I looked over your post, which had fantastic information, but I'm still not connecting the dots. I have tried to insert the Convert time zone action prior to my original post without success. I have tried again and will share my results.
The source I am wishing to convert and format are part of my SharePoint list Date/Time column:
My flow is as follows:
The image below shows that the report is pulling the correct items as only 2 of them are in the future, however they still show in UTC which is 7 hours ahead of local time.
Should the Convert time zone action be moved within the flow? I was hoping to add to my expression to avoid the extra API call, but I'll take whatever works at this point. Any further advice would be much appreciated.
