Trigger MS flow when a field is updated in Dynamics CRM

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by deepthih 4

I have created a Microsoft Flow where it will send an email with lazy approval to the user . It is working fine. 

But I have to either trigger the flow manually or  on an update of the field in Dynamics CRM. I have searched for the options to trigger it on update of a specific field in CRM, but no luck.

Is there any way I can get some API where I can Run the Flow directly.

    The Dynamics connector documentation outlines what is available for use as a trigger. Have you considered running the Flow on a schedule, and then using a condition to check if the record has been updated in a specified time or not (such as weekly or monthly)? Dynamics also offers a full REST API. 

    If you could provide an expanded screenshot of your Flow and steps, we could likely better assist you.

    Hey Brad, 

     

    Thankyou for the response. My idea to triiger flow from dynamics CRM is to trigger it in real time when a buuton is clicked or a field is updated but not on schedule basis. So i am just looking if there is any way to trigger flow through some script or workflow from Dynamics CRM.

     

    Please find the sample flow that I have created. flow.png

    Here I am triggering flow when a Contact record is updated in , but i have trigger when a field is updated in Contact or on click of some buttom on the contact Record.
