Submit Form as a Different User That Does Not Have Access to a SharePoint List

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 3

Hello,

 

I'm currently in the process of developing a Microsoft PowerApp form which submits an item to a SharePoint list. However, I have run into an issue whereby any user that does not have access to view or edit the list is unable to add the item. This is by design, as we don't want the users to view or edit the contents of the SharePoint list.

 

I followed the tutorial by Reza Dorrani whereby I created a Power Automate flow that runs the SharePoint connector as a user which has full access to the SharePoint list. This had worked, but unfortunately it has resulted in no validation because it would submit to the SharePoint regardless of whether any content is missing from the form or not.

 

I was just wondering if there was a way to submit the form as a different user with form validation still functioning.

 

Thank you,

Jamie

    Hi @Jamie16 

    It's not possible to submit the form as a different user. You would need to recreate the validation on the button that you use to save the record, prior to calling the Flow.
