Respond to Power Automate Flow Or Power Apps

🧩 Problem Statement

When building solutions with Power Apps and Power Automate, developers often need to send data from a Power Automate flow back to Power Apps. However, many struggle with how to:

• Use the “Respond to a PowerApp or flow” action properly
• Send complex data types such as SharePoint records, API responses, or JSON arrays
• Retrieve and parse multiple rows or values inside Power Apps after receiving a response

This leads to confusion, broken integrations, and inefficient workflows between Power Apps and Power Automate. A clear understanding of how to send structured responses from Flow to Power Apps is essential for building robust, data-driven applications.
