Get Event List

The Get Event List activity retrieves events from a Microsoft 365 calendar of the configured service account. It allows you to retrieve events within a specified date and time range, apply additional filters, and store the retrieved events in a variable for further processing within the workflow.

Prerequisites

  • A valid Project Key is required in the Publish Console to access and publish workflows successfully.

Activity Details in Canvas

Microsoft 365: Select a Microsoft 365 account from the available connections. The selected account is used to authenticate and access the mailbox.

Calendar: Specifies the calendar folder from which events will be retrieved. You can either select a calendar folder from the drop-down list, enter the calendar folder name directly as text, or provide a String variable containing the calendar folder name.

Start Date & Time: Specifies the date and time from which events will be retrieved. You can select the date using the date picker, provide the value through a variable, and enter the time manually.

End Date & Time: Specifies the date and time until which events will be retrieved. You can select the date using the date picker, provide the value through a variable, and enter the time manually.

Note: The Start Date & Time and End Date & Time fields can be configured using either of the following options:

  • Use Variable: Select a variable that stores the required date and time value.
  • Deactivate Variable: Remove the variable and enter the date and time directly.

Supported DateTime Format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss

Example: 2023-01-10 13:00:00

Additional Filters: Allows you to define additional filtering conditions using the Filter Builder to retrieve specific calendar events based on event properties.

Important: Values configured in the Canvas are automatically populated in the corresponding properties in the Properties panel and can be modified there if required.
