Power Automate Cloud flow with a custom connector and on-premises gateway

Posted on by 2

I have a use case where I need to make API call to an external cloud application that is only available from our on-premises network. The external app uses public IPs whitelisting to control access. It seems that a direct call from Microsoft public IPs is not allowed.

 

I am under the impression based on information available that this is a use case for using on-premise data gateway in a flow, and just wanted to confirm by asking the question here.

 

Any Thoughts?

 

Thanks

    If the request has to be from an IP inside your network, you will need something like this. Ask your admin what’s ok. Maybe you can write your own „proxy“, use power automate desktop, azure function (but you will also have todo some setup) and I also think you can setup logic apps to have a limited number of IPs that can be whitelisted but I am not 100% sure about that.

    Thanks for the response.

     

    Our MPP admin is telling me that this is not an available as a use case.  

     

    Are you aware of any article noting similar use case from Microsoft?

     

    Thanks!

    Hello @rgfdic01

     

    Yes, just make a custom connector using the on premise data gateway.
