PowerApps trigger 401 error for getting CDS record

[Reinier]

Hi All, 

I build a canvas app from which I want to trigger an approval flow after which I want to update a CDS record. 
However, I keep getting the 401 error (see image below) which for me is really strange as I created the CDS environment. 

Moreover, I have admin rights in both PowerApps and Automate. I cannot imagine that I need any other rights. 

I tried multiple configurations (get before and after approval trigger, and update CDS record right away) and also checked the GUID of the record. There were other posts regarding this topic but none discussing CDS with PowerApps trigger. 
Probably, it is something real easy but I cannot seem to figure it out... 

Do I need to turn flow on for environment? Do I need special rights? ... 

Help is much appreciated. 


I couldn't find the answer to my question on the form but I expect that i

Hi @Reinier ,

It can happen that you have changed your password recently. So you need to update the connection of CDS by reentering password or creating a new connection altogether with new password.

Thanks

Hi @Reinier ,

This seems to be related to your use of the PowerApps button as the trigger. If Flow triggers when the record is changed, you can consider using When a record is created, updated or deleted directly as the trigger.

Hi @ManishJain ,

Thanks! I rebuilt the flow and now it works just fine. It is strange though that the exact same flow works. I also found that working in an incognito browser works even better.
