In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Power Automate Triggers), how do I… Create a Flow for a Record on Modification

This article is part of the In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Power Automate Triggers), how do I… series, a sub-series of the In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Power Automate), how do I… series and of the wider In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, how do I… series which I am posting as I familiarise myself with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

There are a number of triggers available in Power Automate for Business Central which allow flows to be started. In this small series, I am going to take a look at creating a flow for each of the triggers.

The third trigger which is available is the When a record is modified (V3). This trigger works when a record is modified within Business Central.

This type of flow is created as an automated flow in the Power Automate portal; enter a Flow name and search for Business Central, scroll down the list of available triggers and select When a record is modified (V3). Click Create:

The designer windowwill open with the first step added, but needing parameters to be set; to open the trigger details pane, click on the trigger:

Set the Environment and Company parameters.

The API category will default to v2.0 and you then need to select the Table Name which will define which table the flow looks for modified records.

With the trigger parameters set, you can now start defining the steps which the flow will process when a new record is modified. These could include an email, Teams message or other actions depending on requirements.
