Posted on by Community Power Pla...

I've read that it is possible to change the original owner of the flow that I create from the Solutions tab, as you can read on the link below:

https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Power-Automate-Ideas/Change-original-owner-of-a-flow/idi-p/94053#comments

But I would like to know how.

(I don't want to export and import the flow with the new account)

✈️PowerApps

I would like to show you how I change the original owner in the powerapps:

1. Run PowerShell as an administrator.

2. Import the necessary modules using the following commands:

Install-Module -Name Microsoft.PowerApps.Administration.PowerShell
Install-Module -Name Microsoft.PowerApps.PowerShell -AllowClobber

3. Provide my credentials

Add-PowerAppsAccount

4. Change de original owner

Set-AdminPowerAppOwner –AppName 'AppName' -AppOwner 'UserId' –EnvironmentName 'EnvironmentName'

5. That's all, for me it worked

For more information:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/powerapps-powershell#operation-examples

✈️Power Automate

I tried the same steps as above, but it didn't work.

I tried to use these commands, but none works, can you help me?

Set-AdminFlowOwnerRole
Get-AdminFlowOwnerRole

The only other way (I confirmed from Stephen over Email) is using the REST API.

Set-AdminFlowOwner role only supports CanView and CanEdit Role types.

As a test i tried changing the current owner tole to CanView and i get BadRequest error so i am assuming this is not possible currently.
