Hi All,

Greetings for the day!!!

Today new tip – using addDays() in Power Automate.

In Power Automate, recently got a chance to use addDays() so sharing.

Details

• This function adds integer number of days to string timestamp passed to it
• We could see this function under Date and time under Expressions in Dynamic Content dialog

Syntax:

addDays(timestamp: string, days: integer, format?: string)

where:
timestamp : datetime in which we need to add number of days
days: number of days need to be added in timestamp string
format: optional parameter - format of date which we need. It convert the DateTime into a specified format (i.e. dd-MM-yyyy, dd-MMMM-yyyy,etc) 

Demo :

• In one of our project we need to update date field with tomorrows date – so Today() + 1 day
• We have automated flow triggers on “When an item or file is modified” trigger
• In our SharePoint list we have column – “Reviewer Assigned Date” of type Date and Time, which we need to update

addDays(utcNow(),1,'dd/MM/yyyy')

Thanks for reading !!! Please feel free to discuss / suggestions / share thoughts !!!

HAVE A GREAT TIME AHEAD !!! LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL 🙂
