Can a Locked Office 365 Account prevent the flow from running?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 78

Hi there, 

Will a Locked Office 365 Account prevent the flow from running? I've created a flow for a client with user for example 'xol@email.zom'. In the meanhwile the account 'xol@email.zom' got locked due to incorrect password. A few hours later the client informed me that the flow was no longer working. 

Can anybody confirm? 


Kind Regards,

Niel

    Hi @Orvyn ,

     

    Could you show me a screenshot of your flow if it is convenient for you? If the flow is running with some account permissions, it may not work.

     

    Best Regards,

    Jessica Gu

    @v-JessicaG-msft , thanks for you reply. 

    I stumbled onto the following, https://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/290700/what-will-happen-to-the-ms-flow-connectors-if-their-usernames-password-got-reset

    So logging into the clients account after it was unlocked, I had to go ahead and

    1. Reauthenticate the connections to the flow.
    2. Fix connections for SharePoint and Outlook
    3. Fix connections on some of the flow stages/Actions.

    This seems to have fixied the problem and also answer my question. 

     

    Kind Regards
