Flow trigger from App Form submit

Hello all,

This is my second encounter with Flows (first with Power App. V2 trigger) from apps and I'm wondering how would I connect the form OnSubmit with the trigger that requires the ID of that "new" item?

this is my attempt:

Form1 ---> OnSuccess (property) --->

---> FlowName.Run(ThisItem.ID);

how is that situation handled like?

Flow picture above, and after that I would get item (other item data) and process them into variables to make it send mails, approvals, change its values etc.

Anybody can help a beginner get his headstart confidence?

Thanks in advance! 🙂

- Nikola

Hi @NidjoJohnny22
Does the flow triggered from the app need to send a response back to the app? If not, I would suggest creating an automated flow with the SharePoint - When an item is created trigger. But, if the app expects a response from the flow, then you can grab the ID of the last item submitted via the form like this:
FlowName.Run(FormName.LastSubmit.ID)
For the flow trigger, you can use the original PowerApps trigger, and then set the ID parameter directly in the
ID field of the Get item action. If you can provide more details about what you are trying to achieve, that will help us in providing you the best possible approach.
Regards,

Hello @faustocapellanj ,

This looks good, it should work in a Flow - logical way. That's exactly what I needed! Thank you 🙂
