Hi everyone, I am just wondering if anyone knows of a way to manually trigger a flow in another environment with a flow? Kind of like use the run a child flow action but for a flow in a different environment? Please let me know if you know of a way.

    The main intention of environments is to isolate the Power Apps and Power Automate components in one environment from the other. I do not know what is your use case for this requirement. There is no way we can trigger the flows between different environments.

     

    I can recommend the following workaround:

    Environment A:  From the flow in this environment, I will create a SharePoint list item in List XYZ.

    Environment B:  I will create a flow which has a trigger "When a new item is created" in SharePoint list XYZ. 

     

    The above two flows in each environment can trigger one another. Even if you do not have any data, you can just create some dummy data to trigger the flow.

     

    I hope the above workaround will be useful for you.

    Hi @consultantlk @rsaikrishna 

     

    There are a bunch of new (Preview) actions in Power Automate for Dataverse. This brings the connector closer with parity with the Legacy connector.
