Now available in public preview are four new Connectors that let you access resources in the Power Platform in an Admin or Maker scope. These Connectors are accompanying the Flow Management Connector<\/a>, which gives you just about as much control over access to these resources as we have.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

About<\/h1>\n

Similar to the PowerShell cmdlets for PowerApps<\/a>, we have exposed the Power Platform APIs as Standard Connectors so you can more easily interact with PowerApps and Flow resources within PowerApps and Flow. To add these Connectors to your project, search for them like any Connector either in a Canvas App<\/a>, or add an action in Flow<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Admin Connectors (Powerplatform for Admins, Microsoft Flow for Admins and PowerApps for Admins) will give the user access to resources tenant-wide, whereas the Maker Connector (PowerApps for App Makers) only gives access to the resources if the user has some ownership of the resource (e.g., Owner, Editor, Shared with, etc.).<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Prerequisites<\/h2>\n

Any user with a valid PowerApps license can create a connection to the PowerApps for App Makers Connector.<\/p>\n

Creating a connection to Powerplatform for Admins, Microsoft Flow for Admins and PowerApps for Admins Connectors requires the following to work properly. Anyone can create a Connection to the admin Connectors, but will hit an error if they don\u2019t have the correct license.<\/p>\n
