Sharepoint permissions required for Flow to Show in a library

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 16

I want users of my sharepoint list with contribute permission level to be able to run a flow on a selected item. It seems like the user needs manage lists permission which means they could tear my list up, delete columns etc. What can I do to reduce the potential damage?

    @JackHindley:

     

    You are correct - users need contribute access to see For a Selected itms Flows - I understood your original post to say that your users had contribute access.

    That doesn't give the user with read-only permissions to the list any option to run a flow on the item. There is no flow launch panel in the toolbar (modern experience).

    Please take a look at the adding the list as a run-only user.  You do not need to share the Flow with individual users or elevate user permissions above contribute.

    Additional information can be found here.
