Automating sharing of PowerApp via PowerApps for Admins (Preview) MS Flow Connector

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I've been working on an MS Flow to automate the sharing of a PowerApp with people when they join our team. I am using PowerApps for Admins (Preview) MS Flow Connector and the Edit App Role Assignment as Admin action (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/powerappsforadmins/#edit-app-role-assignment-as-admin)

 

From the documentation it is stated that the "Notify Share Target Option" is not required and "Notifies the new user if provided the string value 'Notify'.". However, I am finding that it always sends an email notification to the person it has been shared with. Can you please advise how to prevent the email notification being sent?

 

 

Here are the details of the action I am referring to.

    Hi @matticusau ,

    Could you please share a bit more about your scenario?

    Do you want to prevent the share notification email from sending to the end users?

     

    Based on the issue that you mentioned, I have made a test on my side, and the issue is confirmed on my side. Regardless of whether or not you specified the "Notify" string value within the "put Notify Share Target Option - 1" field, the Share Notification email would be sent to the end users.

     

    If you want to prevent the share notification email from sending to the end users, I afraid that there is no way to achieve your needs in PowerApps currently.

    If you would like this feature to be improved, please consider submit an idea to PowerApps Ideas Forum:

    Thank you for the information, my intent is as guessed to be able to prevent the notification from being sent. This would give us the same functionality which we have through the PowerApps UI where we can uncheck the tick box that controls the notifications.
