Microsoft Flow: Interface that Accepts Client ID and Client Secret

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

I'm currently trying to create a Microsoft Flow connector that would enable our users to allow data to flow from their SharePoint products into my company's external API. Looking at other connectors, I see that some of them allow users to input client ID and client secret strings into the connector up front, such as this one from Google:

How did they achieve this functionality? I assume this sort of thing is available to all users of Flow, but Microsoft Support won't give me an answer to that part.

 

Thank you!

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    I cannot exactly tell how they did it, but I am sure Google has defined it in their Swagger definition file(OpenAPI). Note: Most of the connectors follow the OpenAPI standard.

     

    You will need to do some more research, but when you create a custom connector from the Power Automate Portal, can find some details under the Security tab.
