Cannot get MS 365 Calendar Event details

Hello, i am trying to capture Microsoft 365 calendar event details into a Google Sheet.
In the workflow, I have selected "Event Created" as the calendar trigger.
When I click the Save & Test button, (and create a test meeting event) the result set I get back does not contain any event data (e.g. event subject, event start, duration, etc...)

Workflow Name in my account: Capture Calendar Meetings

If it helps, I have created a video explaining why challenge:

Thanks in advance.

p.s. if anyone reads this and has suggestions about how to improve this posting, please let me know. I am new to this forum and wide open to feedback!

Hey @spinckney !

You would be required to use another step as after your trigger step as "Microsoft Office 365 : Get Resource" -

Further, you can check on this video clip for the detailed process- https://www.screenpresso.com/cloud/JHZPf/

Hope, it works for you now.

Best Regards.

This worked! One thing - I was not able to find the meeting duration field from the GetResource() Event.
It returns to event start and end date, but no event duration date.
Does this mean I need to calculate these? If so, can you tell me how I can do that in Pabbly?
Thank you.

Hey @spinckney

The API is currently not showing the time duration in their response. And currently, there is no tool available to calculate the time duration from two-time formats.

Though if we found any workaround on this, we will let you know.

Regards

@Fagun Shah - Do you know if there is a way to calculate the the duration from two time values? e.g. 6:00pm CST minus 5:30pm CST = .5 hours / 30 minutes.

Thanks very much @Fagun Shah! I will try this approach this weekend.
I do hope that Pabbly will consider adding some native ability to calculate this or figure out how to expose the duration field via the GetResource Integration.

@Supreme - Hello. I believe I've found a solution, but it requires the use of the TIMEVALUE function. According to the docs, it looks like Pabbly should support this, but whenever I try to use it I don't get the calculated result; it only shows the formula I entered. For example, if you enter TIMEVALUE("18:00") it should return .75. Instead the result just shows TIMEVALUE("18:00"). Can you check and see if the TIMEVALUE spreadsheet function is supported and let me know if it is possible to add support for it if not?

Also, if interested, the solution I am tracking for my original problem of calculating duration of a meeting appears to be:
TIMEVALUE(END_TIME) - TIMEVALUE(START_DATE) * 24.
I've only tested on a few scenarios so wanted to ask you and @Fagun Shah if this works for you as well.

Thanks!

It would be very easy if support for this can be added.

@Supreme any updates on this

Hey @Fagun Shah @spinckney

We are currently looking into it, kindly allow us some time.

Regards

@Supreme just checking, any updates

We're making a separate module for calculating the date duration and will be introduced soon. We will notify you as soon as that is launched.

Thanks

Hey @spinckney @Fagun Shah

As per the requirement, we have added the Time Duration Calculator to calculate the time difference. Kindly try this at your end and let us know if that works for you.

Thanks
