    Your points are valid. It's very difficult to understand what you're saying because of the way you explain it. I listen to the video repeatedly and try to predict what you are saying in order to understand. Thank you tho.

    Thank you very much. Is there a way to validate the day without knowing for sure the format it is coming from? the user may input the data in dateUs and/or DateUK format. And after validating it just standardize in one format. Thanks

    Hello, Thanks for the beautiful video! I need to get clarity for a question from you. I have an Excel file with a couple of columns, kept the file in SharePoint location, and with the help of list rows present in a table operation trying to read data from the Excel file with date format as "ISO 061", the output looks like "Joining Date": "2021-01-18T00:00:00.000Z" but I need only the date and month from above value Expected output - "01-18". How do I need to specify the condition in ''Enter custom Value" to get the desired output

    Hi Anders - Your videos are really good and especially also very structured and also super explained.
    However, I do not get on with one point. I want to create a CSV from an Excel table and change the date format. When I go through the steps, it works, but when I go to create the CSV table, it does not accept the changed format for the date.
    How can I include the changed date format in my CSV?

    Hi! thanks so much for this tutorial it has been very helpful! I am still having a few issues gettting my flow to work from an excel template, to update a Sharepoint List. Basically, I have been copy/pasting from a source file into the excel template where the table is. But, for some reason, PA continues giving me this error message "OpenApiOperationParameterTypeConversionFailed. The 'inputs.parameters' of workflow operation 'Create_item' of type 'OpenApiConnection' is not valid. Error details: Input parameter 'item/field_21' is required to be of type 'String/date'. The runtime value '"44998"' to be converted doesn't have the expected format 'String/date'." Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

    Hi Anders, another amazing lesson from you! Just have a question about date -- I am creating a PAD flow to read from some excel files and write into a master file. One of the columns is date formatted as "dd/MM/yyyy'. The iteration with conditions went smoothly. But after the flow was completed, I found that the date column in the master file was messy with various date formats. Some were "MM/dd/yyyy" and some were "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss". I simply just want the date column formatted as "dd/MM/yyyy" as the original files. Is there an effective way I can do that? Thanks in advance!
