Permissions And Connection References in Power Automate flows in Solution

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 240

Hello,

 

I have a cluster of Power Automate Flows working against a single SharePoint list(triggered on Items modified/created).  Flows are part of the solution and are calling one another and all of them require CRUD operations on the SharePoint list.

 

I can see two thigs when it comes to access for these flows: 1) Owners 2) Connections. I want to make sure that number of users will have access to run these flows. Are the flows going to perform CRUD on SharePoint list under the account that is indicated in Connection References regardless of account that has created an item in the list(triggered a flow)?

 

Please help me understand this.

 

Thank you.

    Yup, the flow is using the credentials specified in connection reference while making a call to the sharepoint apis - who entered the item in the list does not matter in this case.
