Forms: Time input question
I hope someone finds my answer useful. I have managed to figure out the formatting on the Forms and Flows. So on your form you will need to make 4 questions.
Start Date: <- make sure to format that as "Date".
End Date: <- make sure to format as "Date" too.
Start Time <- in our case, we are in GB so the time format on the Flow is HH:MM, 24h clock.
End Time <- same as above, we use 24h clock so HH:MM
Next, in the Flow section, "Create Event v4" when is asks you to specify start time and date, add the two expressions "Start Date" "Start Time". When you add them make sure there is a space between the two expressions otherwise it will fail. In the end, the raw input should look like this DD:MM:YYYY HH:MM.
See picture in the flow:
Hopefully this will help a lot of people.
Thank you for your post - I think many of us have similar "workarounds" the point many of us have been making is that for something so simple, we shouldn't have to work around it.
Nearly all of Microsoft's products have a date/time picker - Office, PowerApps, SharePoint, Dynamics etc.
it's just so infuriating that forms doesn't have this simple component, it's not a technological issue, it's a policy/revenue issue.
