Try to Send an email - You may break your Power Apps triggered flow with the changes on the added connections

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 8

I had built a flow for approving some on-site testing.  It is triggered from PowerApps V2, uses sharepoint list data, approvals, amd one drive to convert to pdf.  It is working without issues and no errors/warnings

 

Now I am trying to have the flow send an email, and I am getting the error below:

"You may break your Power Apps triggered flow with the changes on the added connections"

It does not matter where in the flow I add it, and I get the error as soon as its entered

I have tried removing and re-adding the connector in the powerapp, and turning the flow itself off and on

 

I am not sure how sending an email could break the flow.  When I remove the email and run the flow, it works with no issues.

    Hi @bgierwi2 ,

     

    Sending a mail will not break your flow, but changes made to the connection may, for instance when you are adding parameters that PowerApps should send to Power Automate:

    Hi @BCBuizer ,

     

    In my case, the only thing that Powerapps is passing to power automate is the sharepoint ID number, and then power automate is updating the sharepoint list directly from there.  And I get the error as soon as I add the email step

     

    And per the other article I have tried removing the power automate connection and re-connecting it several times with no luck.  Is there anything else to try or check?

     

    I really appreciate any pointers.  I am still somewhat new to this and trying to learn more.

    Hi @bgierwi2 ,

     

    It is not an error, but a warning: it may break the flow. However, if you add it, test it, and all is fine, I'm sure the warning will disappear.

    @BCBuizer 

    Seems to be working and the warning did go away

    Thank you!
