Microsoft hands admins new power to block connectors in Power Automate
Reviewed by Helen Jones
Advanced connector policies reached general availability on 11 June 2026. Admins can now create rules that prevent makers from using specific connectors across environments. The same update added a preview feature that lets desktop flows launch a Power App. Closed-loop learning for enterprise agents was also added through the Power Apps MCP server. No rollout dates or regional availability details were provided.
Before this change, makers could try connectors as long as their licence allowed it. A flow that needed a Premium connector or an unusual integration could be tested and adjusted without waiting for approval. Now the decision moves to whoever controls the policy. A connector that worked yesterday can be blocked tomorrow, and the flow will simply stop. Makers who built processes around connectors they do not own will discover the breakage only when runs fail.
Analysis
Assume the policy will be turned on in your tenant within the next quarter. Open every flow you maintain, list every connector it touches, and write down what happens if that connector disappears.
