Now that we know what a service principal is and why we should use it we can take a look at how to set one up. Because of the mentioned reasons, it is a good idea to change the connection to a service principal connection. In Power Automate it is very tempting to just use the connection which uses a user principal that will be automatically created.
- It is possible to use different service principals for different environments which makes sure that we not by mistake access the wrong environment.
- Which allows us to use the princible of assigning only the minimal permissions. This makes it possible to give the certain application user only the needed access within Dataverse.
- We can use a different service principal per area/integration.
- So when a user get’s inactivated or deleted the flow does not lose access.
- A service principal decouples the Flow from a user and solves the dependency to it.
- There are three main reasons to use a service principal. We will only take a look at the type of Application. The docs do also describe the three different types of service principals. This basically means that a service principal is defining which access and permission an application that tries to access a resource within Azure has. This enables core features such as authentication of the user/application during sign-in, and authorization during resource access. The security principal defines the access policy and permissions for the user/application in the Azure AD tenant. This requirement is true for both users (user principal) and applications (service principal). To access resources that are secured by an Azure AD tenant, the entity that requires access must be represented by a security principal.
The Microsoft docs do describe a Service Principal very well. Backgroundįirst of all, we have to talk about what a Service Principal is and why we should use it. This blog post intends to explain this common request.
