The requestor for a document sign is always me when using Power Automate

Hi there,

I have set up a flow in power automate that when a file is put into a folder it sends it off to Power Automate and notifies the participant.

The problem is I set up the connection with my Sign account details so every request comes from me, but there are 6 people who will be putting documents into this folder at any point in time as it is for purchasing approvals.

Does anyone know how I can change this behaviour?

Thanks

Hey there,

Currently I am using the trial but we are going to have a number of subscriptions added to our account and we’ll turn one of those into an admin account.

I imagine when my account gets turned into an Admin account I can leverage the ‘In the name of’ option in the flow to use a users name, just need to figure out how to capture it as we are triggering the flow when a file has been created, not via an email input or anything like that.

You are right that you need to use the 'in the name of'.

You can signup for a dev account (use a different email address than you would use for production) that can be used for testing. dev accounts allow for 10 users in the same account, which you need as any email address set in the name off, needs to be in the same Sign account as the user who authenticated the connector.

However you main issue is indeed setting those emails: this may work:

tthough that returns an array and you may get multiple records. if it's limited to 6 or so users, you could create a Sharepoint list with the user display name as returned by the 'last modified by' parameter in one column and their email in another column, and query this SP list to get the email.

or store this list as an array variable inside the flow
