Can't use Task Scheduler to run PAD Flows with connections?

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

I am trying to schedule a PAD Flow using Windows Task Scheduler and the Flow URL.  This was working fine before, it but seems to have stopped working at some point.  The task will start and the Flow never runs.

 

I have added a connection to MS Teams to message me a confirmation the Flow was completed successfully.  Now when I try to start the Flow with the desktop shortcut, it opens the Power Automate window to show me the connections are working, and I have to click to continue. 

 

I presume this might be why the Task Scheduler is not able to continue?  Seems to almost defeat the purpose of even having a desktop shortcut available if you still have work to do after the shortcut is clicked.

 

Is there some way around this, or another thought to get Task Scheduler working again?  Do I need to just remove the connection and lose that functionality?

    I'm looking into it right now since I just ran into the same problem. I'll update this response if I get anywhere, but seems like removing the connection is the quickest hotfix.
