Power Automate approvals not firing for batch approval requests

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

We recently upgraded from BC on premise to Dynamics 365 BC cloud. I've been attempting to test a few Power Automate workflows based on the templates.  I can successfully trigger flows using 'When a new record is created', so I believe my connections/credentials/environment is fine, but I am not getting very far with journal batch or document approvals: I cannot get them to trigger.  There are never any runs and no checks or failed checks.

In BC, I see the two test approval flows listed in 'workflows' with Microsoft Flow as the source. However, when I select one and choose Flow-View, I receive the following message which makes me suspicious: An error occured while trying to access the Flow service. Please try again or contact your system administrator if the error persists.  It is also noteworthy that I do not see the other 'When a new record is created' Power Automate flows that are working fine, similar to a different post: https://community.dynamics.com/business/f/dynamics-365-business-central-forum/394292/automated-workflows

Any suggested troubleshooting steps?

    Replying to self: the issue may be due to our ISV extensions. I will share more soon.
