Advisory: Seeking assistance on establishing connectivity between Power Automate and on-premises Active Directory

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 5

Hello All,

 

I'm new to @PowerAutomate and currently working on build a self-service portal on SharePoint Online for users to request service accounts.

Here's how I envision it working:

          Users submit a request through a SharePoint list.
          A Power Automate flow triggers, sending the request for approval.
          Once approved, the flow automatically creates the service account in our on-premises Active Directory.

 

However, I'm struggling to find a clear path for the Power Automate and on-premises AD integration. Can you please advise how to make this connection happen?

If direct integration isn't possible, are there alternative approaches to achieve my goal?

 

Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

    Hi @Lakshmanan10,

     

    There is no connector in cloud power automate to connect to on-prem AD, but power automate desktop does. Create a flow using desktop then call it from your cloud flow (Trigger desktop flows from cloud flows - Power Automate | Microsoft Learn
