Hello All,
We are encountering issue with flow. We have trigger when event added updated and deleted on outlook(This operation triggers a flow when an event is added, updated or deleted in a calender).
Issue is,
When we are using outlook client and trying to create new event, in the flow action type goes as "updated" not added.
However when we use online office outlook account and try to create new event it works and action type goes as "added".
Earlier it was working not sure why outlook client new event treated as updated.
Please help us.

Hi @RPSingh ,
I can reproduce the same issue on my side.
When a new event is added in the Outlook client, the 'ActionType' is shown as 'updated'.
However when a new event is added in the online office outlook, the 'ActionType' is shown as 'added'.
I suggest you use the 'When a new event is created (V2)' action here.

I run into the same issue, but also in the web client. When examined closer, it seems like the "added, updated or deleted"-trigger is semi-broken. When looking at the details of the object, I can see that the "created time" and "last modified time" differs from one another, even though the object was just created.
My guess was initially that the create time is set for the moment when you click "add an appointment/meeting/new items" in the outlook desktop client, but since you most likely immediatly start editing it, the trigger doesn't go off. Instead, the trigger kicks in when you click "save & close" which also sets the last modified date to that time. Subsequently, since the create time and modified time differs from one another, the trigger reckognizes this as an updated event, rather than a new one....
But that theory was sort of shot down when i experienced the same issue in the web client, allthough with a much tighter timeframe:
