Hi,

 

Working on my 1st Power App / Flow combination & wondering how does PowerApps no if the Flow was successful or not?

 

How is this kind of scenario dealt with?

 

Thanks in advance

 

Todd

    @Tango 

    So if you are calling the power automate from a button then you could receive it as below

    Set(returnvalue,TestFlowFromPowerAutomate.Run().success)

     

    return value will be holding the success message.

    @Mira_Ghaly How does power apps receive it? can I add a success message in the onselect? How do I know what it is? Would it be the title of the Yes/No output? Thanks

    I would do something similar to the below:

    SO you need to add an action and parallel action with a configure run after action
