User v Flowbot

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 30

I have a flow configured to send a Teams message whenever a SharePoint column is updated.

Currently, the message is sent from the user, but I want to change it to be sent from the Flow bot. However, when I made this change—without modifying anything else—the flow encountered an error. Everything was working fine before this adjustment. What could be the problem?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi,
     
    Couple of things to try:
     
    1) delete the action and re-add it.  Sometimes changing from User to Flowbot does not accurately get updated in the schema.
     
    2) make sure the chat is public.  I don't think you can post as flowbot to a private chat or with external users.
