Passing a Dataverse Row ID (GUID) from Power Apps to Power Automate

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 36
I am designing a cloud flow that retrieves the specified player’s data from Canvas and then emails it.

I am using an automated cloud flow with the When a row is added, modified, or deleted trigger.
I have created the flow and defined a Row ID input in the trigger. I have configured Get a row by ID to use that input parameter from the dynamic content.

Now, I want to call the flow from the Canvas app and pass the Dataverse Row ID (GUID).
 
I have attached the app screenshots.
 
any help would be greatly appreciated.

    If you want to call the flow from a Canvas app, the trigger must be Power Apps (V2).
    Here are the high-level steps:
     
    Step 1: Create a Power Automate Flow --> Create an Instant cloud flow > Select trigger Power Apps (V2) > Add a Text input parameter and name it RowId.
    Step 2: Use the Row ID in the Flow --> Use the RowId parameter in Dataverse actions, for example: 
    Get a row by ID
    Step 3: Call the Flow from Canvas App --> Call the flow and pass the Dataverse GUID

    Hi Vendakesh,
     
    Thank you so much for providing the steps to call a flow from a Canvas app. Much appreciated. I have attached the screenshot the results.
    To call the flow, I went to the OnSuccess property of my form and entered the formula using the flow’s name and .Run()

    Power FX formula failed to run because there was error.
     
    I'd appreciate any help in resolving this.
     
    Cheers
