ownerid or modifiedby value - systemuser

Hi There,

I appreciate this is a long shot and may not be the correct location to post this.

My project I'm working on is actually in a Model Driven app - Power Apps, however a lot of the backbone was or is built of D365 CRM it seems.

I have a column that is set as a lookup field and when I run some Power Automate flows, the written outputs for the trigger report the modified user of the colum as systemuser or it gives what seems to be a GUID. The column has a relationship with the "User" table in Power Apps which is a OOB table that all licensed applicable users. I cannot get the flow to call the user that modified the column because it recognises the modified or owner as a system user.

After going to advanced settings>Customizations>Customize the System and looking through the entities, is it possible there is a configuration I can change here to display the correct modified user rather than the systemuser?

I have the same question (0)

    Hi,

    You need to set Run as option to triggering user in power automate trigger action.

    Hello,

    It seems that you are not setting the "Run As" option in Flow trigger.

    Please mark this answer as verified if this helped you.

    Thanks

    Yes,

    It's issue from Microsoft we had same issue even though we run flow in Run as But still same. So what we have done if we will be getting user id from trigger output then we will be setting into respective filed and in out case it was Owner.
