Power Auomate When A New Form Is Submitted Not Triggering
Scenario: User set up a Power Automate flow 100% correctly, standard:
- When a new form is submitted
- Get Form Details
- Do Stuff
However, when it came to testing the MS Forms submission was not triggering and all form submissions weren’t being triggered. Very annoying.
Did the standard:
- Log in and log out
- Turn flow off and on
- Re-point the form Ids to a different form, save, switch back, save
Nothing.
Solution:
- Open the MS Form directly
- Copy the form ID (All the text after ‘id=’)
- Open Power Automate and edit the trigger and first action:
- Where you specify the form name, click “enter custom value”
- Paste the form id into the custom value
- Test and save.
Magic. Power Automate is weird sometimes.
