Power Apps - Trigger Power Automate Flow On Approval Reassign

 Do you ever get this requirement where your client asks to perform some operation when approval gets reassigned?

Today, I'm going to demonstrate how we can trigger the power automate flow when somebody reassigns the approver.

To start with, you need to make a Power Automate Flow.

Step 1 : 


msdyn_flow_approvalrequestidx_reassignedfromid ne '<none>'
Incase of reasssign, reassignedfromid contains guid.

Step 2 : 


triggerOutputs()?['body/msdyn_flow_approvalrequestid']
Pass the Approval Request Id from the trigger outputs.


Step 3 : 


triggerOutputs()?['body/msdyn_flow_approvalrequestidx_approvalid']
Pass the Approval Id from trigger outputs.


Step 4 : 


triggerOutputs()?['body/msdyn_flow_approvalrequestidx_approvalid']

I've used this action to get data from item link/ Item link description.
This is very helpful when you want to make changes to a specific record, you can put the GUID of that record in the approval Flow's item link description and can get those details in your approval reassign trigger flow.


Step 5 : 



outputs('Get_a_row_by_ID')?['body/msdyn_flow_flowapproval_flowname']

Finally, In this condition.
I'm checking if the reassignment occurred from my desired flow or not.

To get the flow id, you can reassign the approver, and in outputs of Get a row by ID, you can get the id of the flow.

You can get more information from these connectors.
For e.g : reassigned from, reassigned to, details you've added in the approval flow.

How to Use Pre-Image in Power Automate

When working with Dynamics 365 or Power Platform, accessing historical data for record changes, such as pre-images, is essential for tracking updates. One approach to retrieve this pre-update information is by leveraging audit logs combined with Power Automate . This method can help you track the state of a record before an update, which is especially useful for auditing or troubleshooting. In this blog post, we’ll explore how to retrieve pre-image data using Power Automate with the help of audit logs in Dynamics 365. Why Use Pre-Images? Pre-images are snapshots of a record before a plugin or workflow is executed. They help you compare the "before" and "after" states of records, which is crucial when maintaining accurate audit trails, debugging issues, or enforcing business rules. While plugins typically handle pre-images in real-time, there may be cases where you need to access historical pre-images after the fact. This is where audit logs and Power Automate come

Power Pages - Multi Select Field Show Hide and Set Business Required Using Javascript

Image
In this Power Portals blog post content, we are going to implement a multi-select field and use JavaScript to hide and show it based on user interactions. Enhance user experience and streamline data entry by revealing the field only when needed.  At the end of this post, you'll be able to hide and show fields based on the option selected in the multi-select field and make it business required as these two options are not available out of the box in power pages. Add the below code in your basic form additional settings. Code: $(document).ready( function () { var field = document.getElementById( 'new_multiselectparentfield' ); $( "#new_multiselectchildfield" ).parent().parent().hide(); // To Hide Multi Select Field var changeField = new MutationObserver( function (mutations) { console.log( 'changed' ); onDisplaySectionChange(); }); changeField.observe(field, { attributes: true , attributeFilter: [ 'value' ] }); MakeRequired( "new_mu
