User HTTP With Microsoft Entra PreAuthorised Connector

Hi All,

I am working an app which calls a flow to fire bulk updates in Dataverse table. The code and execution etc is working as expected. My query is around the App Permissions which are prompted when the user opens up the app for the first time.

For most of the connectors, once the user signs in, the connection gets created in the backend. But for HTTP PreAuthorized Conenctor, the permission is asking the user to fill in the Microsoft Entr ID and Base Resource URL. Not sure if this is the correct behaviour of this connector. Has anyone faced this issue before? We can pass on the details to the end users as they will need to key that in only the first time but we dont want to go through that path.

We are using connection reference in the flow which is tied up to my connector. The URI and URL's in the above screen are correctly setup at the connector level.

Any workarounds that I can try OR is there a better way to do the above ?

Thanks.

@Irfan,

Instead of having each user create their own connection, you can create a service account and set up the connection reference with it.

This way, users do not need to authenticate individually, as the connection reference is already established.

It doesn't work if the Flows are called from PowerApps. The HTTP connector cannot be shared i.e. it will always run in the context of the user who has called that flow. I am trying to create child flows so that I can separate out the flow using HTTP connector and the primary flow which will drive the connection. I'll see if I can get it working in this way,
