Yes, when creating a flow choose Manual trigger and then choose when a record is created, updated etc trigger.

Hi Kalp Shaha,

Create power automate using trigger 'When an HTTP request is received'

and on change of your column write similar code.

var flowUrl = "flow URL"; var input = JSON.stringify({//If you any parameters defined in your power automate than used line number 4 to 7, otherwise remove it. "argument 1", "argument 2" }); var req = new XMLHttpRequest(); req.open("POST", flowUrl, true); req.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json'); req.send(input);//input is passed when you need it.

Let me know if I can provide more details.

Thanks

You can add an onchange event on the field and trigger the flow using javascript function.

Check following link.

Hi Kalp Shah . I'm assuming that you are talking about triggering a Power Automate Flow when you change the account entity on an Online Dynamics 365 environment.

You can choose the Dataverse connector, and follow this documentation docs.microsoft.com/.../create-update-delete-trigger, the "Column Filter" will need to be the "Primary Contact" field for your scenario.

In this example the flow will only trigger when the field "cst_readytosend" is changed.
