Ask in PowerApps missing: Power Automate


I have a PowerApp. In the PowerApp I go to power automate and select create new flow. I select create from blank. I add step to initialize variable and there is no dynamic content available. Specifically the ask in power apps I keep seeing in YouTube videos. What do I do? enter image description here


Solution

  • If you are using Power Apps (V2) trigger in your Power automate flow (which is default now a days) --> you will not get "Ask in Power Apps" option in dynamic content.

    You have to define your own inputs inside trigger instead of "Ask in Power Apps" option.

    Example:

    Power Apps V2:

    It is recommended to use Power Apps (V2) trigger in Power automate currently.
