Microsoft Flow

Just like many other offerings from Microsoft, Flow is a new app which is part of Office 365 suite. it's included in maximum of Office 365 subscriptions and can be accessed through Office 365 app launcher. Microsoft Flow permits you to automate commercial enterprise approaches with the aid of building workflows primarily based on positive triggers and moves.

Microsoft Flow, on the other hand, employs a graphical user interface that allows users to create workflows just like MSFT Visio. What makes Microsoft Flow different is that your workflow can interact with different programs like Mailchimp, Dropbox, Twitter, SharePoint, and OneDrive.

Steps to Configure Microsoft Flow Recurrence trigger to Send email with info related to solution imported in Dynamics 365.

Step 11: Now we will add a condition to verify that the solution is imported today, and we are using advance mode to give the condition

“@equals(formatDateTime(items('Apply_to_each')?['createdon'],'MM/dd'), formatDateTime(utcNow(), 'MM/dd'))”.

as shown in below image.
