Posted on by vish3027 434

Hi All,

 

All of you must have seen new impersonate option in flow which is available for SharePoint actions.

I have queries regarding that related to Power Platform request limit,

 

May i know whose Power request limits will be used when we are using impersonate for SP action

1. If Automated flow

2. Instant flow, Flow triggered from PowerApps

3. If any other scenario you have seen

 

@ScottShearer

 

Thanks in Advance

    @vish3027 

    In an automated Cloud Flow, the Flow will run each action or trigger using the credentials used in the action or trigger connection.

    The exception is a Flow called from a Power App where the default is that the Power App users credentials will be passed through and used.  As you mentioned, you can use the "run only users" setting for the Flow to specify a user other then the Power Apps user.

    @ScottShearer My flow is invoked from Powerapps and I am using impersonation as well.

    Then how the request quota will be utilized throughout the flow.

     

    Thanks
