Effect of changing user's login name on Flows?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi,

 

I have a user that has a number of Flows, they are wanting to change there user name (marriage), I assume that I can just update the username in Office 365 then the user can re-connect the Flow connections with their new account name?  Are there any gotchas out there I need to be aware about when changing a users login name.

 

Thanks

Rob

    Just in case someone searches for this in the future.  Once the user name has been changed in the Office 365 admin portal get the user to login to a InPrivate browser session with their new user account name.  Go to "Flow" and then go to "Data" -> "Connections".  From here click on the three dots at the end of each connector and select "Switch account", you should be prompted with the new username, repeat for all connectors that use that users account and you're done.
