I’ve created a zap that triggers 1 day prior to a calendar event.  I want to make sure there are not duplicate events. 1 day prior, I created a zap to find all events in a calendar that have the same Subject and Start Date/Time.  I want to count the # of events that were found so I can delete any duplicates if the qty is more than 1.  How can I do that?

Hi ​@Kim_M 

Depends how the data is returned from Outlook that you are trying to use.

Can you post screenshot examples to give us more context?

 

It may involve using a few Formatter steps.

 

Here’s a Code approach:

 

 


Here’s the configuration.

 

 

When I test it, this is the output:

 


Hi ​@Kim_M 

Zap action: Outlook - Find Event

This step will only ever find 1 Outlook Calendar Event.

 

If you are trying to find multiple calendar events, then you will need to explore using the Outlook API.

Link to resources for using app APIs in Zaps:
