PowerApps to manage Power Automate Flows

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 3,023 Moderator

Hello everyone,

 

Has someone already tried to make an app to manage one's flow in Power Automate?

 

By managing I mean :

 

  • Checking on a flow's status
  • Restarting a flow if ended with an error
  • so on...

 

I know it is entirely possible to do those things from the Power Automate pages, but my users sometimes complain about a flow that never started or crashed without any warning and I would like to give them a view so they can see the flow 'actually' started and if it's still ongoing.

 

Thanks for your responses.

    You cant do that... You can only add the Flow to your data source.. Nothing more...

    At least that I know of...

    Hi @WiZey ,

     

    Power Apps could only use but not manage the flows. You can get the flow run result or returned result to Power Apps only when the flow has run successfully.

     

    How to manage flows? See:

    Hope this helps.
