Hi, 

I am creating a flow in power automate to add task in planner. But the option to execute the "Test Flow" manually is disabled and it shows "This flow cannot be triggered for testing". Can someone please help.

    Hi, Thank you for sharing the information.  However, I dont see any "deploy" button so could not follow your instructions.

    Hi @Satish_Anchlia ,

     

    The trigger you used is "For a selected item", which can only start the flow from SharePoint.

    When you deploy your flow ready, just save the flow and it will shows up in your SharePoint list-Power Automate drop down. Select an item and click the flow name to trigger the process.

    1. Click "Flow checker" beside Test for further information about error happens.

    2. Could you also spread your action and take a screenshot for me, so that I can check the parameters you insert.

    Thank you~
