Can I pass dynamic data from my Power App to a flow in Power Automate, and how would I do that without hardcoding values?

How do I handle the response from Power Automate and update my Power App with the results of the flow’s execution?

Using flows

1. Yes, you can pass dynamic data such as text inputs, dropdown selections, or any user-provided data from Power Apps to Power Automate. When you create a flow, you can define input parameters to accept data from Power Apps. These parameters are passed when you call the flow, allowing you to send live data to the workflow.
For example:

This way, you don’t need to hardcode any values, and you can work with real-time data.

2. To handle the response, you’ll need to use the Response action in your Power Automate flow. Once your flow completes, you can send data back to Power Apps through the flow’s output. In Power Apps, you can capture this output in a variable using:

This will store the response from the flow in the Result variable, which can then be used in your app.
