Remove Member from Group permission Error

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 537

Hello,

 

i have a Problem in my Powerapps triggered Flow.

 

I am trying to create an App for IT to add or Remove Members from specific Azure AD Security Groups.

 

My Connection is useing a service account. This service account is an Owner of the Azure AD Group.

 

When i am running the Flow from Powerapps everything works fine. The user gets added or removed from the group.

 

When other Users run the Flow from Powerapps the flow return the error at the "Remove Member from Group" Action. 

Insufficient privileges to complete the operation.

"Forbidden" Authorization_RequestDenied

Status Code 403

 

But the Connection Account is indeed the owner of the Azure AD Group.

 

Can someone tell me what the Problem might be? Maybe the user running the flow in Powerapps needs Azure AD permissions?

 

Thank you and best regards

Niklas

    Hi @niklasjegg ,

     

    When you trigger flow from Power Apps , it runs under the user account who is running the app. that's the reason when other user using the app you are getting the error because flow is using user account and they may not have enough permission to remove users.

    You have tow option:

    1. Give all app user permission to add/remove users
    2. Instead of calling flow directly from app, you should create a SP list where you can add a new item whenever app user want to add/remove users. and trigger your current flow on item creation on this list and run it using services account.

    Regards,
