PowerAppsforMakers.EditAppRoleAssignment() - works in Canvas app but, not within Power Automate?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 24

Within my canvas app I can use the PowerAppsforMakers.EditAppRoleAssignment() connector to grant and remove permissions to my app with the check/uncheck of a checkbox element. No problem, works great.

 

When trying to use the same connector within Power Automate, I get a permissions error stating that I don't have permission to perform the action?

 

I'm trying to figure out if this is a limitation of Power Automate or, if there could be a permissions issue within our enterprises' environment?

 

 

//This code within my PowerApp works fine to remove a user's permissions
 PowerAppsforMakers.EditAppRoleAssignment(
 _varDevAppInfo.name,
 {
 //API VERSION - OBTAINED FROM FLOW
 'api-version': "2016-11-01",
 //FILTER BY ENVIRONMENT TO GET OUR SINGULAR DEV ENVIRONMENT
 '$filter': "environment eq '"&_varDevAppInfo.properties.environment.name&"'",
 //TRANSMIT DATA IN JSON FORMAT
 'Content-Type': "application/json",
 //DELETION PARAMETERS
 delete: {id: lbl_UserOffice365ID.Text}
 }
 );

 

 

When I try to use the PowerAppsforMakers connector from within Power Automate (using the same confirmed variable values), I get a permissions error when running the flow?

 

 

{
 "error": {
 "code": "Forbidden",
 "message": "The user with object id 'XXXXXXX-d929-42dc-9261-0653d34ed129' does not have permission to access this."
 }
}

 

 

Can anyone offer any suggestions?
