A new power app to production

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 21
Hello,
 
I'm quite new to the whole power platform in general, and after some months work, I was finally able to deploy my solution to production to implement it in our organization.
 
The power app should be accessible for select people. So I have pressed the 'share' button in power apps, and picked the people who needs to have access to the app.
 
Everything seems to be working until they try to use the app. For context, the apps purpose is sending an evaluation form to the selected project manager, and starting three flows in power automate that do different things.
 
The problem is, that even though I have shared the app with the selected people, they still can't use it, giving me an error which is as follows:
 
XXX.Run failed: {"error":{"code":"0x80040220","message":"Principal user (Id=xxx, type=8, roleCount=0, privilegeCount=0, accessMode='0 Read-Write', AADObjectId='xxx', MetadataCachePrivilegesCount=4578, businessUnitId=xxx), is missing prvReadWorkflow privilege (Id=xxxx) on OTC=4703 for entity 'workflow' (LocalizedName='Process'). context.Caller=...
(The X's are for privacy. They replaced the original id's)
 
I feel like I have searched everywhere for a solution, but without sucess. I can't imagine that I need to share the flows with the people as well, seeing as the connection references are linked to the solution, and to my account. Any help would be welcomed gladly :)
 
Best,
Mikkel
 
PS. The end result is a power app web part imbedded in a sharepoint site for easy access, but I have tested the app as a web part, and seperately from the users web.powerapps.com site, and nothing works

    Did you set the RunOnly user setting on the flows in the Solution to use a specific connection?  If you didn't then the flows will try to run in the security context of the user who triggers them from the app. That's why you are getting the error.  This screenshot shows the Run Only user setting in the Details of the flow in the solution. By default it will be set to "Provided by run-only user".  You need to change that to a specific connection.  That will let the app users run the flow in the security context of the maker of the flow so you don't have to share the flow.

    Hi Pstork1,
     
    That makes a lot of sense! Didn't even realise that it was a setting. I'll have to go through the rest of my instant flows and change this. Thanks for the help!
