receiving e-mail as a trigger for a flow in a service account

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello,

I have created a flow where receiving an email is the trigger for certain actions (sending mail back for example).

Now I would like to move this flow to a service account.

 

1. Are there any problems with a service account flow, e.g. regarding authentication?
2. if I have say 5 different shared mailboxes and I want the trigger to always fire on all of them when they receive an email in the mailbox,
- how do I write this into a service account.
- With 5 mailboxes I can simply enter them in the trigger, but what if I have 100 that still keep changing. Can such a trigger access a list? is this somehow possible with a service account?

 

thank you for any help in advance
