Simplifying Workflow Account Management

Hey everyone,

 

Quick question, our senior dev left, and now the flows tied to his account are failing because the connection can't sign into his account.Now the question is, can we create one account for making these flows and share it with devs to avoid this issue in the future?

 

Thanks!

    It depends..

    The best practice is to create a service account for all the flow but you will certainly get licensing limitation in the future depending on flows runs / api requests every day etc.. 

     

    What I personally do : 

    For each project, I create a service account.

    Inside the project solution, I create connections using the service account, so all developers could use those connections when creating flows inside the solution. 

     

    You can also create a service account for multiple projects but as I said you have to consider the licesing limitations. 

     

    Hope this will help
