INC Power Automate Connector Change Notice

📆Upcoming change: New Power Automate connector user role validation

We're introducing an important enhancement to the Nimbus Power Automate Connector, rollout planned on 15th of January 2026. This update is designed to improve security and ensure that flows are only triggered by users with valid permissions.

☝What is changing: 

  • Currently, users must hold a Power Automate Role in Nimbus - either Service Owner or Administrator. The role is validated when creating a flow.
  • With this upcoming update, an additional step will be introduced, validating roles at each execution of a flow. This effectively prevents flow-execution by users who no longer have the appropriate access.

✅Action required: We recommend for all our customers using the Power Automate Connector to review and confirm their flow configuration to avoid any disruption. Keep in mind that the new validation will not just check the role but also the Organization Unit scope under which the user operates. Any later changes in the user's OU scope will also affect existing flows  - e.g. the services that the user can see and impact.

 

🔎Certified and Custom Connector differences

 All Roles listed in the table below have access to the Nimbus Power Automate Connector, however with varying Execution rights. Note that your installed Legacy & Custom Connectors may still work using these roles, but will not receive access to new features, e.g. new Triggers and Actions.
✅Consider a Connector Migration to the certified connector as soon as possible and check the Flow-executing user role to ensure a smooth transition.
