Licensing scenario with Power Apps and Power Automate

Posted on by Klifthor

Hello to the community! I have only been on the Power Platform for a few months and I need your guidance for a fairly simple licensing scenario. The use case follows:

An organization has Microsoft 365 Business Standard licenses for their users, and they use a Power App that utilizes standard connectors, in order to store their data to a SharePoint list. Every night this updated SharePoint list must be sent to an external API via a Power Automate flow.

What license is needed for this Power Automate flow? Power Automate Premium license will suffice or is there a better option for this scenario?

Thank you in advance!

Hi!

I suppose that you use HTTP connector in your flow to use this API, in this case, like this connector is Premium, the account that runs the flow needs a license Power Automate Premium.

Alberto is right, you will require a premium license for either the HTTP or custom connector.

Something to be aware of is if the app was premium you could have 'Associated' the flow to the app. That way the flow would not need a premium license but could use the apps Power Apps premium license (from a T&C the flow doesn't have to be triggered by the app but has to be in the same solution and related to the overall app solution)
