Azure function API key

Step 1

Open the Function App in the Azure portal and go to API keys section. Copy the value of the API key from there. Here we are using _master for admin access, but you can also create a new host key.

Step 2

In your flow, use HTTP action. HTTP actions enable users to interact with APIs and send web requests that perform various operations, such as uploading and downloading data and files. Ref: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/desktop-flows/actions-reference/web

Step 3

Pass the API key you copied from Azure as query string with the URI of Azure function. Format: FunctionAPIUrl?code=APIKey
