(Updated) Files and items will display as modified by “Microsoft Power Platform” on behalf of the user

Updated April 23, 2024: We have updated the content below for clarification of the experience associated with this change. Thank you for your feedback.

We’re making some changes to how items and files modified by a Power Automate flow or Power App display in SharePoint. In Classic Mode you will see a modified by “Microsoft Power Platform” on behalf of the user that caused the flow or app to create or modify an item or file. Additionally, in the columns “App Created By” or “App Modified By” you will also see “Microsoft Power Platform” in both current user interface as well as Classic Mode.

Note: The columns “Created By” and “Modified By” are not changing as part of this updated experience, you will still see the user that triggered the flow or app process.

[When this will happen:]

We are targeting this rollout to begin mid-May 2024 (previously mid-April) to early June 2024 (previously late April).

[How this will affect your organization:]

User’s may notice the new “Microsoft Power Platform” display name in their SharePoint files and lists.

[What you need to do to prepare:]

Inform users and site owners of the change in display.
