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

Monika,

Can you suggest a way to get the immediate response of the Inbound mail trigger with the predictable behavior of the System user? I would prefer not to just schedule the flow for, say, 2:00 AM and have it go find the most recent email matching its filter. If I used one flow (with an Inbound email trigger) to respond to the email, and had it call a second flow via the FlowAPI, and had that flow do the work of ingesting the attachment, would the second flow run as system user?
