Locking down the When a HTTP response is received connector - prevent running as 'Anyone'

(2) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by WWCC 34
Greetings all.
 
I was hoping someone may be able to provide some advice around the use of the When a HTTP Response is Received connector.

In terms of governance, we want to prevent the use of 'Anyone' in the Who can trigger the flow field. Preferably lock it to Any User in my tenant or specific users.
If this cannot be enforced, is there any other option for Monitoring our environments to alert if a connector like this is used with the 'Any User' selection?

 
Thank you
RD

    At the moment, Power Platform doesn’t provide a built-in way to stop makers from selecting “Anyone” in the When an HTTP request is received trigger.

    What most organizations do instead is put governance controls around it. For example:

     

    * Use DLP policies to restrict where HTTP connectors can be used

    * Limit who is allowed to create flows with premium/custom connectors

    * Use the CoE toolkit or admin reporting to monitor flows using HTTP trigger

    For monitoring, you can scan flows through the Power Platform Admin connectors or CoE data and identify flows where the trigger authentication is set to “Anyone”. From there, you can create alerts or governance reports for review.
