How can I use Power Automate to turn Microsoft Forms responses into a new user account?

The age old problem; getting new users assigned to the correct groups. IT doesn't know the membership of every position, and apparently neither do the staff's supervisors. We get frequent call backs for not having the right memberships set up.

I would like to automate this process by creating a Microsoft Form, using the data selected within the submitted form, and creating an Active Directory account based on that. We are hybrid Entra ID joined, and I have stood up a Power Automate on prem gateway and connected it to my 365 tenant.

Does anyone have any good examples of the Power Automate flow for this? Anyone using something similar in production? How can I set Power Automate to use the gateway to create an on prem Active Directory account? If that's not logical, will Entra ID accounts be able to join local resources (network shares, etc.) based on group membership?
