Hi Folks -
Is there a way to trigger an MS Access Sub, Function or Macro from a flow? If none of the aforementioned, is there a way to at least open an MS Access DB so I can leverage an AutoExec?
Thanks!
Hi @simms7400
There is no connector available for MS Access right now. If you think this should be added as a feature, you can raise an idea or upvote already existing ones here: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Power-Automate-Ideas/idb-p/MPAIdeas
One other way you can do this is using Power Shell. You can write a script and that can connect to MS Access and then you can trigger the script from flow through an Azure Automation account.
Hope this Helps!

@simms7400 no, there are no Access connectors in Power Automate.

As has been mentioned by @RobElliott and @yashag2255 there is no MS Access connector. Can you explain a little more about your requirement and what you are trying to accomplish?
One option you have is to migrate/export your data to SharePoint and use linked tables in Access - MS Access will do this for you automatically. Then, since the data lives in SharePoint, you can use Power Automate. Since you have your Access tables linked to SharePoint, you can still use Access forms, reports, etc..
