Disable/Block All Usage of a Connector

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 242

is there any way to prevent the usage of one or more specific connectors ? We have some customers that are highly regulated or that have unique security concerns and they would like the ability to hide some connectors so that they do not even show up as an option.

    Hi @DLGross,

     

    There is no any way to prevent the usage of one or more specific connectors in microsoft flow currently,I afraid that there is no way to achieve your needs in Microsoft Flow currently.

     

    If you would like a feature for person to hide some connectors to be added in Microsoft Flow, please submit an idea to Flow Ideas Forum:

    https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Flow-Ideas/idb-p/FlowIdeas

     

     

    Best regards,

    Alice

    This is possible now with the latest update to the Power Platform Powershell cmdlets released in 12/2019

    It will block all Non-Business data category

    Hi

     

    But this is only for Trial Licences.

     

    What about Production environments ?

    Looks like I had a certain header in that link. In that page it lists a new PS cmdlet. I have done this in my company and blocked all "non-business" connectors in default production environment.

    Set-AdminDlpPolicy -PolicyName <Guid> -SetNonBusinessDataGroupState “Block”

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    How do I get the <Guid> from the Policy Name ?

     

    Thanks

    Hey @NigelP You can go to the admin center admin.powerplatform.com and edit the DLP policy you want to block connectors on then look in the URL and you will see the GUID, otherwise you can use PS to get a list of the policies and copy the GUID from there.

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    I am getting "Bad Request" when I run the SetAdminDlpPolicy -PolicyName <Guid> -SetNonBusinessDataGroupState "Block".

     

    Regards
