Power Automate to avoid customer no-shows in Teams meetings

How to reduce the number of unmet video/team meetings?

With the rise of home working and the generalization of video meetings, commercial travel has been greatly reduced. So much time saved?

Not quite, because at the same time the number of appointments not honored by prospects or customers is exploding…and the minutes spent waiting in vain for your contacts are accumulating.

With Microsoft Power Automate, you can configure in a few minutes the automatic sending of an email before (1H? 1day…you decide) some of your events.

How to do it?

1. Open the Microsoft Power Automate application > Create > Automated Cloud Flow.
2. Choose as trigger “‘When an upcoming event starts soon”
3. Add as a step a “condition” configured as follows:

“Subject” “begins with” “[type in the first characters of the Teams Meeting Title for which you want to set up a reminder]”

“If yes” > “Send an E-mail V2” To “Required participants” Subject: “Reminder “Subject””

“If no”> leave empty

and it’s already done!
