Help: Trigger a flow from a SKY Add-in button

Carlos Pelay

Hi folks, I keep getting this error message when clicking the button created in NXT to connect to a PowerAutomate flow: "The web request action returned an error response: 401"

I'm following the instructions for invoking the flow here: Invoke a flow - Microsoft Integrations

and the instructions for the Web Request Action SPA here: Invoke a web request - SKY API

I started with the template flow named "Trigger a flow from a SKY Add-in button" as suggested by the instructions in the first link.

I've confirmed that the application id of my app ("41fc5b2f-417d-4297-887b-734574c45185" is entered correctly in the "Validate User Identity token" action of my flow:

I've used the URL generated by the trigger step ("https://edcbce3fd967ed739cac6f14687056.1c.environment.api.powerplatform.com:443/powerautomate/automations/direct/workflows/6247cda82b094096ab1d110959bf86dd/triggers/manual/paths/invoke?api-version=1)

along with the instructions from the second link to create the web request action URL for the add-in:

I believe all my permissions are up-to-date.

Does anything look wrong or did I miss a step?

Appreciate any thoughts or suggestions you might have. Thanks!!

Well, good news - the automation is working now! i tried co-pilot one more time for help and it suggested changing the "Who can trigger the flow" setting in the trigger step from "Anyone in my tenant" to "Anyone"

This worked for me - hopefully will help someone else also :)

I'm a few days behind getting caught up on community messages - this is what I would have recommended. So Go Co-Pilot! Glad it was helpful and you resolved this!
