    The one that sjov and Abdul Wahab mentioned, but complexity is higher. Take a look at these examples:

    community.dynamics.com/.../execute-power-automate-flow-from-javascript-and-get-response-back-in-crm-form-on-demand-power-automate-flow-from-button

    softchief.com/.../

    If you're not a developer, it will not be easy as the code is not ready to use. You need to adjust it to your scenario and needs.

    Hi Kalp,

    That is what I should suggest before... Pedro, I like your suggested solution.

    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.
