Integration of bookings with Flow and PowerApps
Is it possible to use bookings functionality in a PowerApp. I am looking for a solution that will support the booking of resources in an online examination room, asking the person to do a reservation...
Paul Dewhurst I have created a flow that is using the trigger "When a new event is created (V3)" (Office 365 Outlook) and used the bookings "user"email for the connection , so now when a booking is made I can automatically do other "flow" actions.
_MichaelVD_ You can share the Outlook booking calendar behind the booking site with yourself and use your own account for the connection in your flow. That way you don’t need an admin providing you with the password for the booking account.
robertbuzink how do you share the calendar w/ yourself? I couldnt find anything about that...
- In the mail you get when you create a booking calendar, follow the link 'Manage membership' (e.g. https://outlook.office365.com/owa//xyz@xyz.onmicrosoft.com/bookingstaffmembership.aspx )
- Delete the 'bookingstaffmemebership.aspx' part in your browser address bar and hit enter to go to outlook for web as the booking user
- Click on calendar
- Clink on Sharing and permissions in the context menu
- Share with yourself
- Accept the invitation you get in your mail
robertbuzink worked like a charm - thank you for that 🙂
