    Hi @AmbikaMurugesan ,

     

    At my knowledge, we can run powershell, cmd, postman or other way to call the rest api trigger of the flow.

    First of all, we need to use flow trigger 'When a http request is received'.

    Please use "&" instead of & in your URL.

     

    PowerShell Reference:
