I have installed WinAutomation since it is now part of power automate and tried to use my account and power automate license but it keeps asking for admin approval. Does anyone know who that would be? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi @Pagran
According to the documentation you will need your tenant administrator to grant consent to use your Power Automate Work or School account with WinAutomation.

See section Sign-in to WinAutomation
Thanks
Thank you for responding! I have submitted 3 help desk tickets to different teams and no one knows who a tenant admin is, and no one on my team knows who that is. I have gone through the documentation you posted as best I can and every FAQ I can find.
The following links might be helpful.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/admin-overview/about-the-admin-center?view=o365-worldwide
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/add-users/assign-admin-roles?view=o365-worldwide
Thanks! Those links are helpful but unfortunately when I go to the admin page it says I am not authorized. Is there a specific Office 365 admin role (maybe in the active directory that those sites talk about) that can authorize WinAutomation to read information from my account? Maybe if I can be more specific about the type of admin I need I can get more help from the help desk.
