POWERSHELL ACTION IN FLOW DESIGNER EXECUTES AS SYSTEM USER BUT FAILES AS LOGGED-IN USER

 

I am trying to consume a powershell action in flow designer; the powershell is running on midserver as system user instead of user provided in connection details.

 

Snippet of result when I try to use command 'whoami'

find_real_file.png

 

This user is not having access to content which I am trying to read & edit - and the action fails with error as below:

find_real_file.png

and error code is having userid as passed in credential of this step.

 

Is there any way we can change the execution-user to be same as user passed in credentials instead of system account.

It is resolved, the service account which was running midserver as service on OS was culprit. Once changed it from system to user-account; the system was no longer reproducible.
