Calling powerapps FROM powerautomate (not the other way around)

Posted on by

So the background is that there are chucks of code that reside in powerapps and we have some flows that are triggered automatically when needed which could leverage that same code.. Is there a way of having a powerautomate flow triggerred that could ping a specific powerapps and return data without initiating the call from within powerapps?

    No, whatever data processing your app does, you will have to convert it to function in power automate.the problem is Power apps is an instance and only exists when someone is running it. Maybe the workflow could just be a button in an app to trigger your flow, allowing you to use the existing power apps code to help process data, but i still think it would be work the time to convert it to actions in power automate as then you can have a fully hands off flow.
