Office 365 Connector Get My Profile - Get a push notification when you receive an email...

Newbie question - be gentle...

 

Just building my first few flows and using the default template to Get a push notification when you receive an email from your boss.  All connections are configured and have a green tick and the flow runs however Get my profile throws an error as follows:

 

{
"error": {
"code": "-2147024891, System.UnauthorizedAccessException",
"message": "Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or access this resource.",
"innerError": {
"request-id": "c4a5929d-3d94-4ea8-bfda-5b5aecb1f248",
"date": "2018-12-04T22:03:41"
}
}
}
 
If I run the template as a Global Administrator then it works so I'm guessing its a permissions issue somewhere - but where exacty?
 
Thanks in advance...

    Hi @Dusted,

     

    Maybe the flow runner account don't have permission to the Connection account of "Get my profile" action

    Please make sure the flow runner account have permission to the Connection account of "Get my profile" action.

     

    Best regards,

    Alice

    My account is the Flow runner, the connections are all made with my account and all report in a green state.

    I've removed and readded the connector and nothing changes.

    Update. If I make the Flow user a SharePoint administrator then the Flow will work. Not a resolution but does point to this being a permissions error.
