Known issues and limitations

  1. Only Bookings admins can create flows using Appointment triggers. Description: Right now only Bookings admins (different from tenant admins) can create appointment triggers. If you are a user who is not an admin (Team Member, Scheduler, Viewer, Guest), you should ask your admin to create a flow. Alternatively, you can also request for admin access.

  2. Only 5 flows can be created per Bookings Mailbox. Description: For a Booking Mailbox, only 5 flows can be created. This is a Bookings Mailbox level limit and not a per admin limit. If you are looking for more than one action for an appointment trigger, you can add that in one of the existing flows by using the Add Action button. You can contact other Booking administrators for support.

  3. Errors saying "Staff not part of Bookings Business", "Invalid authority" while creating a flow. Description: Please ensure you are a part of the said Bookings Mailbox and you are an admin for the same. You can go to the staff tab and verify the same.

  4. Some of the Bookings parameters - Cancel Reason for 1:1 Bookings are not populated. Description: The said paramters do not appear now and we are working to fix this soon.

  5. Bad Gateway Error - If there are issues in the backend API for creating flows. 502 Bad gateway errors are seen. Please report the same to Microsoft 365 support.

Common errors and remedies

HTTP Error Codes while creating flows:

  1. '401': Check for Authentication related issues in your connection.
  2. '403': Only Bookings Administrators can create appointment flows. Check (1) in Known issues and Limitations section.
  3. '403': Notification URL domain not a part of allowed list.
  4. '429': More than expected number of appointment flows created for a business. Check (2) in Known issues and Limitations section.
  5. '502': This is an internal server error. Please report this to your support engineer with all the error details in the flow creation response.

FAQ

  1. What do I do if my Booking calendar is not a part of the drop down in the triggers? Answer: This drop down is based on recently accessed bookings calendars for which user is an admin. You can visit it once from Bookings web page and this should ensure that Bookings Calendar appears. You might also not have admin access if you are not seeing a specific mailbox alone.

  2. If (1) does not work, How do I create a flow for a calendar I am an admin of? Answer: You can enter a custom value. The value here will be the Business' SMTP address/ You can head to your Bookings page. Look for the Integrations tab and select the Power Automate option. You can copy the SMTP address displayed here and paste it in the flow's text box.

  3. How to get Customer data from the appointment trigger responses? Answer: If this is a 1:1 booking, then the top level fields like CustomerName, CustomerEmail etc can be used. If it is a group bookings, the customers array can be used to get fields like displayName (customers email, customers displayName etc) can be used with a power automate "Foreach" option.

  4. Why is the StaffMembers an array? Answer: You will be able to assign more than one staff member as host. If your service has only one staff as host, then the staff details will be seen in the staff member array.

  5. Is there a common id that one can use across triggers for a same appointment? Answer: Yes, you can use the selfServiceAppointmentId. This field will be populated for all type of appointments - be it Online or In-Person or Staff Booked or customer Booked. The "Id" field is an exchange id and is not unique across triggers.

  6. Is there a way to get what changed in the update appointment trigger notification? Answer: No, this is not possible today.

  7. How does notifications for multi attendee appointment work? Answer: In case of appointments with multiple attendees, addition of new customers (after the first one) is triggered as an update appointment and not as a create appointment. This is due to the fact that adding a new customer to a created booking essentially means adding an attendee to an existing bookings' appointment entity. The first customer that was added to the slot always triggers the appointment creation trigger as that is the point when the booking appointment entity is created.
