UI Flow Triggers

In continuation to my previous blog post today we will see what are different options to trigger a UI flow.

Deciding the nature of triggers may depend on the nature of the flow(UI Flow) that you created.

  • Attended Mode: To run an attended UI flow, you need to have an active Windows user session that matches the name of the user configured for your connection. The session must not be locked.
  • Unattended Mode: To run unattended UI flows, the target machine needs to be available with all users signed out.

Prerequisites

  • You need the on-premises data gateway for your device to have the UI flow triggered by Power Automate.

  • A work or school account.

You can run UI flow from Power Automate flows. Triggering these flows can be done using from an event, button, schedule, or business process flow.

  1. Sign in to Power Automate.

  2. Select My flows in the left navigation pane.

  3. Select New, and then select your desired type of flow.

  4. Give your flow a name in the Flow name box.

  5. Select Create, and then select New step.




































Provide the gateway information and device credentials.

You'll have to do this once per device:

  • Gateway: Select the gateway that you created earlier or use New gateway to create a new gateway.

  • Domain and Username: Displays the work or school account from the device.

  • Password: Provide your work or school account’s password.







































    6. Select the UI flow that you previously created.

    7. Select Save to save your automated flow.

    8. Try testing your flow.


Thanks,

Business Data Connectivity

I came to a requirement wherein I was supposed to get data from an 3 rd party portal using API’s and then bring them to SharePoint server. The first approach that I finalized was just to make BDC solution that will get data from 3 rd party portal and will deploy it to SharePoint. How to Create BDC solution in SharePoint? I found below link that is having really great description about hot to create and deploy the BDC solution to SharePoint. http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/uploadfile/hung123/creating-business-data-connectivity-service-using-visual-studio-2010/ After creating an POC I came to know that BDC model cannot be deployed on Multi tenant farm. So what can be done next? After some amount of googling I came to know that we can create BDC solution using WCF services also. So I created a WCF service solution that acted as a wrapper that used to fetch data from the portal. We can them publish that service to IIS or Server and use the servic...

Identity client runtime library (IDCRL) did not get a response from the login server.

Recently I was doing some testing with a background PowerShell and encountered a weird error. “Identity client runtime library (IDCRL) did not get a response from the login server”. The error that you might encounter while working with PowerShell. This error is very misleading when it comes to identifying what could go wrong. After doing quite a good amount of research below are the probable causes for the error. Invalid Credentials MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication) Manage security defaults. Solutions Invalid Credentials Check if your credentials are wrong. Especially if you are using variables. MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication) Check if MFA is enabled on the account which you are using. These only affect you badly if you are developing PowerShell for a background Job. Go to Microsoft 365 admin center Users -> Active users -> Select the user -> Manage multifactor authentication -> Select the user -> Disable multi-factor authentication. M...
