Flow management - how to use it?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 15

Hi everyone,

 

I am working on a Flow that will generate a number of pages in our Sharepoint site. The idea is to collect some info via a Form, which then triggers a Flow that creates pages based on it - we have a large number of pages to make where there might be one or two variables to change on each page. And that bit is working. 

 

What I want to do now is to make the Flow branch when creating sub-pages. So, for instance, when Value = X, then it should trigger the creation of X-pages; if y, then Y-pages etc. I want to separate out the creation of the sub-pages into separate flows that I then call from the Master flow. Flow Mgmt will not let me do this with my user, even though I'm a SP admin. 

 

So the questions are:

 

a) Do I need to be global admin to use the Flow Mgmt connector?

b) This Flow will also need to be used by colleagues, so is there a way I can create the above and they would still be able to add info?

 

Thanks in advance, 

 

J in HH.

    Hi Manuel, 

     

    I suppose it's not strcitly_ necessary with the Flow mgmt, but I foresee this series of flows becoming overwhelming otherwise, so I really want to split the different "generations", so to speak, of pages out of the main flow. And that is why I'm somewhat frustrated being stuck here 😉

     

    Thanks for getting back to me - hopefully, someone from MS can pitch in with some details on how Flow mgmt works and what permissions have to be set. 

     

    Best,

    Hi @JayKayHH 

     

    That's strange. I think I have the same permissions as you, but I might be wrong.

     

    I'll let someone from Microsoft take this one so that I don't mislead you.

    Hi Manuel, 

     

    thing is, my regular user is SP admin; I also have a global admin acct. Both are connectors in the flow. But it still won't let me use the Flow mgmt connector without additional permissions. Any ideas?

    Hi @JayKayHH 

     

    I think yes, you need to be an admin to do those actions, but you can share the flow as is to each person, and they can trigger it with your connections/permissions.
