Hi all,

My colleague created a customaction to run Power Automate flow.

The flow is in Default Environment with Manually trigger a flow trigger in Power Automate and the action is added to production environment in BC.

Based on Yunzhu's article,

If the trigger of the flow is not For a selected record, although the action can be added to the page, it will be grayed out and cannot be used.

Attached article here: Dynamics 365 Business Central: How to manually add new Power Automate (Flow) action from VS Code (Flow Id and Flow Environment Id) | Dynamics 365 Lab (yzhums.com)

But actually the action is visible and work. Can anyone has any idea about this? How is this possible?

Then when I added another customaction (same code above, different Flow ID and environment ID) with flow in Production environment (Power Apps), this time, the action is greyed out.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you for your support,

Linh

Hi @gdrenteria,

Thank for your response.

There is the confliction that I don't understand, based on the article, my 1st action should be greyed out and caption set in the code is display, but the thing is that you can see in the picture:

1st action is visible and has the caption of flow's name.

2nd action is greyed out and has caption setting in the code.

Note: Those 2 actions are using the same code with different Flow ID and environment ID, and flows trigger are Manual trigger a flow. Flow of 1st action locates in Default environment and flow of 2nd action locates in Development environment.
