I want to be able to get the run id for a flow when it is kicked off.
Is there an expression that will allow this?

Ali
Hi @Anonymous,
I afraid that there is no any way to get the run id for a flow when it is kicked off in microsoft flow currently,
If you would like this feature to be added in Microsoft Flow, please submit an idea to Flow Ideas Forum:

Best regards,

From this thread
https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Power-Automate/Get-URL-of-running-Flow-instance/m-p/308878
It has a reference to here:
https://sharepains.com/2018/06/19/microsoft-flow-which-flow-ran-on-my-item/
Which looks like you can get it from using an expression workflow() and the run id appears to be stored in the workflows JSON object under run->name so probably something like workflow()?['run']?['name']
workflow().run.name
Want the entire URL?
concat('https://us.flow.microsoft.com/manage/environments/',workflow().tags.environmentName,'/flows/',workflow().name,'/runs/',workflow().run.name)
