Best Practice for Flow Ownership for Employee Turnover

Posted on by jibbs

Hello,

We are a small operations team who started using Power Automate last year to automate a number of tasks and our list of flows is now getting quite substantial to the point that we are concerned what will happen to these flows if either of us were to leave the company. What is your best practice for handling flow ownership considering employee turnover.

Appreciate your support.

Thank you,

Hey @jibbs

One of the best practice is to use a service account with respective licensed to be the owner of the flow.

But as you said you are a small operation, just making an extra account is not the best.

So instead you should keep like 1 owner and 2-3 others co-owners, so that let's say the owner leaves, the ownership would automatically transfer to the next co-owner.

I am sure all the people won't leave the organisation at the same time. 😁

I hope this helps 🙂

Thank you @Sundeep_Malik will definitely consider just ensuring co-owners exist on all our department level flows.
