Is the PowerApps trigger the only trigger that can be used in a flow containing a "Respond to PowerApps" action?

I want to trigger a flow that sends data to my PowerApp, but I don't want the PowerApps trigger to trigger the flow directly. Is this possible?

    I do not think there is such option but there are many workarounds you can achieve this.

     

    After you trigger a flow, write the data to a SharePoint. From Power Apps screen, keep a Timer and refresh the content on the gallery or screen by reading it from the sharepoint list.
