How to change Connections to a service account

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by GB-UK 2

Hi,

I have created a number of flows and need to change them from my account to a service account?

I cannot see a way to do this, because if I create a new account on O365 it requires MFA as that is our policy.

Everything the flows do create content using my name and this is not ideal, what if I should move on from my role, what happens to all the flows?

Thanks

    Hello,

     

    I see a similar issue with a solution.  Can try this and let me know if it works for you?

    Were you able to change the connections to the service account?

    Thanks for the response, unfortunately I am looking for a solution that does not bypass MFA, this is more of a workaround which our IT dept are not very keen on using.

    Thanks
