Will my flow be deleted when my account is deleted?

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hello,

 

I've made a flow, and I'm just wondering if it will be deleted once my microsoft account is deleted? The flow sends a reminder based on a column on a teams site, and I want it to work even when my microsoft account is deleted. 

 

Is it possible to make the teamssite the "owner" of the flow?

 

Appreciate the help a lot😁

    Hi, i had the same issue!
    So i solved adding the group/channel as owner of the group! 
    In this case your flow should survive 😃

    Hope to have help! If you have further question don't hesitate and send me a PM!

    Do you mean by picking the flow, pressing "Share">"Sharepoint" and then putting the URL of the Sharepoint for the teamssite like this + the list name?

    Exactly, set a library and another user ( just to be sure!!) and everything will be ok!

    I guess I have the answer then, but it would be nice if someone else could confirm as quite a lot relies on this function.

    So, if there are more owners of the flow, even if your account is deleted, it will continue working 😃 I made a test and it worked.
    Please consider to mark the answer as solution.

    Have a nice day!
