Starting May 1, 2025, Power Automate will enhance the service pools it uses to operate flows, a change that could affect you if you are managing flows with HTTP actions. Particularly, if your network restricts inbound traffic using firewall rules, you might need to adjust your settings to accommodate this new infrastructure.
Who Will Be Affected?
If you utilize Power Automate flows that include HTTP actions connecting to resources within your network, it’s essential to take action. Flows relying on these actions may be impacted by the updated service pools unless your firewall configuration is adjusted accordingly.
Actions to Take
We have identified that your current setup involves flows with HTTP actions. To pinpoint these flows, use the dedicated PowerShell cmdlet.
Firewall Configuration Updates
To ensure seamless operation of your Power Automate flows, review and update your network firewall settings to allow traffic from the following essential service tags:
- LogicApps
- PowerPlatformPlex
If your inbound traffic is not restricted by firewall rules to the endpoints that HTTP actions are using, no changes are needed.
Why This Update is Necessary
As Power Automate continues to grow and adapt to increased usage, infrastructure updates are required to maintain service levels. While these updates are usually seamless, this particular change necessitates user action on firewall configurations.
Failure to update your firewall settings could result in disrupted Power Automate flows, particularly those using HTTP actions, potentially affecting business processes dependent on these flows.
