    Maybe there is a way to call a child flow from an HTTP request, but I am not aware of a way. You need to use the action Run a child flow:
    To run child flows requires an environment with Dataverse enabled and both flows need to be in a solution. Note, the child flow does not need to be in the same solution as the parent, but it needs to be in the same environment.
     
    Instead of asking how to call a child flow, did you mean to ask how to trigger a flow that is configured with When an HTTP request is received? I suppose you could consider this a child flow, but it is not technically in Power Automate.
