Nesting Flows to now require Premium licenses?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 28

Hi,

 

Just wanting to confirm my understanding of the licensing changes outlined in:  https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Office-Retirement-Blog/UPDATED-Updates-to-Microsoft-Flow-and-PowerApps-for-Office-365/ba-p/289589

 

Given that the HTTP connector will be moved to become a Premium connector from February 2019, do I correctly assume that nesting Flows using the approach outlined here (https://flow.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/build-nested-flows/) will now require premium licenses? 

 

Thanks,

 

David

    Hi @aussiejedi,

     

    I couldn't sure if the "HTTP custom actions integrated into Flow outside SharePoint and OneDrive" could be understand to "HTTP connector will be moved to become a Premium connector".

     

    So you couldn't assume that nesting Flows using http will require premium licenses.

     

    Best regards,

    Alice

    @v-yuazh-msft  as far as I now it will require premium. I agree that  the SharePoint team statement is not clear, but using the HTTP action will require Premium.

    Just got caught up in this myself, tried to add a new HTTP to call a workflow & couldn't do it without upgrading. HTTP now requires premium, legacy flows (built before change) will get extended free until 2020 and then you will be required to have a license for all HTTP connections.

    BUT- Microsoft has an idea marked as "Planned" to be able to kick off other workflows without using HTTP. Doesn't say whether that would be on the free tier, but it's possible that in the near future we'll be able to call nested flows without the Premium connector.
