How can I tell what is the Run As setting for my flow?

thomaskennedy · ‎06-13-2023

I have a couple of flows that may or may not be set to run as System user. I suspect that they are set to run as user who initiated the session. How can I tell? More Options | Properties does not include this information.

Hi @thomaskennedy ,

Could you please check if trigger is Inbound Email of your flow?

As per developer docs, flows with an Inbound Email trigger always run as the user who sent the email or the Guest user. The Run As value cannot be set for flows with an Inbound Email trigger.

Regards,

Monika

Actually no, the properties sheet no longer displays the Run As. (That's also true if the flow is inactivated first.)

Thank you! I've been all over the documentation and thought had seen everything.
