Flow.Run action sending emails from current user

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 127

I am using flow to launch flows from sharepoint as well as from PowerApps, from sharepoint it works perfectly and it sends emails from the mailbox of the person who created the flow itself, however when I use Flow.Run action in PowerApps to call a flow, and use Send email action, it uses the current user who was signed into PowerApps to send the email, so users are getting emails from themselves. Is there a way to change this behavior? Anything I need to do from the PowerApps side?

    @BrittanyR  What is your setup? I’ve been trying to find a way to get a flow triggered from the user who submits a form in a power app to a sharepoint list and an email sends to a shared inbox with the “from” being the user who submitted.

    I am having the exact same issue. I need this flow to send the email as the service account but it's sending it from the user account.
