Posted on by RussellR

Is there a way from within a cloud flow to get the URL to the Run History for that flow?

I'd like to be able to email it if a Scope fails.

@RussellR

Please try the below expression in a compose Data Operation

concat('https://emea.flow.microsoft.com/manage/environments/',workflow()['tags']['environmentName'],'/flows/',workflow()['name'],'/runs/',workflow()['run']['name'])

Hi @RussellR :

You can use the API to create a custom connector to get the running history of Flow:

https://emea.api.flow.microsoft.com/providers/Microsoft.ProcessSimple/environments/{environment_name}/flows/{flow_name}/runs

Thanks to @StefanS365 for the perfect solution, the following are some key steps:

Step1: Add the Activity.Read.All and Flows.Read.All permissions

Step2: Download and import the swagger file for the custom connector. And then Enter Client Id, Client Secret and Resource URL: https://service.flow.microsoft.com/

The Result

Please click this link to read StefanS365's article.

If you are new to creating a custom connector, please watch this video

Best Regards,

Bof

Hi @v-bofeng-msft

Indeed the solution posted by @StefanS365 is very helpful to get the flow runs, but is gets only first 50 runs.
I saw the JSON body has a "nextLink" value, but I did not figured out how to use it to get the rest of the runs.

Is there a way to get the rest or more exactly ALL of the runs?

Kind Regards,
Lucian

Here's how I solved this. The key was to initialize a variable (nextLink) and set it to the API URL, then add a Do Until loop to call the API and set the nextLink variable to the value returned from the json.

Hey all, I am trying to use the api but my enviroment name and flow name have spaces and parenthesis (for example: My comapny(version: 1). How do I need to encode or put the url so I can call the webservice?

Thanks

When you make the request using the nextlink it comes back as a bad request. Are you authenticating here? Even setting this up as a regular HTTP request it doesnt work.

Had anyone been able to figure this out?

Hey santi95, you'll need to authenticate similarly to the 1st request.

I suggest you to wrap it within a customConnector and do subsequent calls if there are more than 50 runs. For your connector, just add another query param for the $skiptoken. Just be mindful of the last character it adds to that 'nextLink' which is an encoded = (%3d).

This post is old and you may not remember it, but I need to check the last execution of a non-solution flow, do you know how to get it? this solution works, as long as the flow is in a solution or you are the owner/co-owner, otherwise, it fails with Status Code 403 and message: ConnectionAuthorizationFailed.

The caller object id is 'xxxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxxx'. Connection 'xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx' to 'shared_logicflows' cannot be used to activate this flow, either because this is not a valid connection or because it is not a connection you have access permission for. Either replace the connection with a valid connection you can access or have the connection owner activate the flow, so the connection is shared with you in the context of this flow.
