How do I trigger a Flow that has a PowerApp-> namespace?

Posted on by 9

I'm trying to get a flow to launch off of a button click. The flow is added to my Power Automate Pane. Every flow that I add here has PowerApp-> as the name space. When I try to add the listed name of the flow (in this case PowerApp->shippingdetail) it creates a formula error. shippingdetail.Run() also generates a formula error. I'm pretty sure I'm just missing something super simple, but I can't find it for the life of me.

    It should be shippingdetail.run() with whatever parameters you are prompted for.  Are you passing the right parameters to the flow?

    It doesn't require any parameters. 

     

    Would a parameter issue give me this kind of error?Screenshot 2023-10-22 at 9.35.17 AM.png

    in the OnSelect function bar what do you get for intellisense if you start typing 'ship' or 'Power'. Otherwise from what I can see what you are typing is correct. It may just need to be 

    'shipping detail'.run()

    Nothing related to the flow comes up when I start typing 'ship' or 'Power' with or without the quotes. 

    'shipping detail'.run() generates the same error as before. Do you think there could be something that needs to be turned on in the environment?

    Try removing it from the Power Automate pane using the ellipses menu.  Then readd the flow to the app. BAsed on your earlier screenshot it should be PowerApp->shippingdetail.run()

    Somehow this cleared things up, and I was able to reestablish the flow and run it. Thanks!
