Power Automate Premium License & Parent-Child Flows

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 15

I'd like to create an Instant Flow for appr. 2,000 individuals to use (trigger coming from a PowerApp). It's not viable to give every user a Premium license. Do all users still need a Premium License if I configure the below? I'd like to avoid licensing on a 'per flow' basis.

 

Parent Flow - PowerApp Trigger > Child Flow* - Uses Premium License Actions

 *The Child Flow run-as would be a user who does have a Premium License

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi @kjeter03 ,

    Any Flow triggered directly or indirectly by a user requires the user to have the appropriate licence for any connectors used. You could write a record to a list (created for this purpose) from the parent with the parameters you would normally pass then trigger the second flow from When an item is created, using those field value instead of the parameters, however you could not return anything from this to the app if you needed to.
