Share a OneDrive connection

Hello everybody

Here is my problem:

In an application, I created a button that allows to collect the elements of a folder in HTML. A flow then launches to convert the HTML to PDF via OneDrive and the file is deposited in a dataverse of the application.

 

These actions only work with me because I have a OneDrive license but it should work with everyone even if the user doesn't have a OneDrive license.

 

The flow should only use my connection to OneDrive and not another one. I would have to manage to delegate this connection.

 

Subsequently, it will be the service account that will delegate this connection.

 

Do you know how can I do?

 

Thanks in advance,

alexander

    Hi @alex369 ,

    If your Flow is triggered directly from Power Apps, then it will use the connection of the logged-in user and therefore they need a OneDrive Licence - it does not matter whether you share yours or not. You might consider writing the file to a SharePoint Library if the user has this licence, but beware of concurrent (or close) writes as the file will be open.

    Hello, thank you for your answer.

    I got around my problem by enabling the stream via a trigger in the dataverse and it works.

    see you soon
