Email Sender Type Field within Power Automate/Flow

Posted on by 1,134

Hi,

Within Power Automate (Flow) there is a field within the Email table called Sender Type. This field will show whether the received email is from a Contact or a System User. However, if I look in the email table to update this column it does not exist to update, even within the Flow itself. Does anyone know if this is a system field that we do not get access to update or if there is a way to update this field?

    Hello Adam,

    i guess that the field is not valid for update; you can query entity metadata attributes of the email to verify if it has the property IsValidForUpdate set to false

    GET [Organization URI]api/data/v9.1/EntityDefinitions(LogicalName='email')?$select=LogicalName&$expand=Attributes

    For example you can update the priority code since it is valid for update but maybe not the sender (type):
