Azure Queues

Azure Queue storage provides cloud messaging between application components. Queue storage also supports managing asynchronous tasks and building process work flows.

This connector is available in the following products and regions:

Power Apps Premium All Power Apps regions

To use this integration, you will need access to an Azure storage account. More information can be found here. When trying to make a connection, you will be prompted to provide your storage account name and your storage key. The name of your storage account can be found in the URL, for example if your URL is https://myaccount.queue.core.windows.net then the account name would be "myaccount". If you have multiple accounts, provide the one you would like to use and select Create. If you see an error during creation, check the account name and the key and try again. You're now ready to start using this integration.

Known issues and limitations

  1. Logic apps can't directly access storage accounts that are behind firewalls if they're both in the same region. As a workaround, you can have your logic apps and storage account in different regions. For more information about enabling access from Azure Logic Apps to storage accounts behind firewalls, see the Access storage accounts behind firewalls

Microsoft Entra ID authentication and Azure Queues connector

In order to use Microsoft Entra ID authentication, the account that is being used needs to be assigned an specific role assignment, for more information, visit Assign an Azure role for access to blob data - Azure Storage:

> Only roles explicitly defined for data access permit a security principal to access blob or queue data. Built-in roles such as Owner, Contributor, and Storage Account Contributor permit a security principal to manage a storage account, but do not provide access to the blob or queue data within that account via Microsoft Entra ID.

Here is a quick test to verify if an account has the required role to perform operations in a container: 1. Sign-in with that account in the Azure Portal. 2. Navigate to the queue in the storage account and that will be used and click on Switch to Microsoft Entra ID User Account in the Authentication method. This option appears just on top of the search box.

If an un-authorized message pops-up, the user needs to be assigned Storage Account specific permissions. To do this, the storage account manager should: 1. Navigate to the queue's Access Control (IAM) tab. 2. Click on Add 3. Click on Add role assignment 4. Assign a specific Storage Queue role to the user (for example, Storage Queue Data Contributor)

Known limitations with Microsoft Entra ID authentication

Due to current authentication pipeline limitations, Microsoft Entra ID guest users aren't supported for Microsoft Entra ID connections to Azure Queues. When using Microsoft Entra ID authentication only V2 actions are supported. Deprecated actions will continue to work with Access Key authentication, but will fail if used with an Microsoft Entra ID connection.

Connect to Azure Queues connector using queue endpoint

Enter the full Azure Storage queue endpoint when creating an "Access Key" connection or using V2 operations.

  • For "Access Key" authentications, enter the full Azure Storage queue endpoint on Azure Storage account name or queue endpoint parameter.

    • When using "V2" operations with "Access Key" authentication, the queue endpoint must be provided in the storageAccountName parameter as well.
  • For "V2" operations, enter the full Azure Storage queue endpoint on storageAccountName parameter.

  • You must provide the full endpoint, including the schema, for example:

    • https://account.queue.core.windows.net/
    • https://account-secondary.queue.core.windows.net/ (if connecting to the secondary endpoint)
    • Relative paths (for example, account.queue.core.windows.net) will be rejected.

Get the Azure Storage queue endpoint for a given storage account

There are multiple ways to get this queue endpoint:

  • Using Azure portal

    1. On Microsoft Azure, navigate to the Azure Storage account you wish to connect
    2. Under Settings section (left blade), click on Endpoints
    3. The queue endpoint will be under Queue service, on the queue service text box.
  • Using Storage Accounts - Get Properties REST API call

    1. Get the Azure Storage account subscription Id and resource group name.
    2. Navigate to Storage Accounts - Get Properties
    3. Click on the Try it button on the top right corner of the HTTP call
    4. Sign in (the user should have access to the storage account)
    5. Choose the Azure tenant the Azure Storage account is located on
    6. Enter the Azure Storage's account name, resource group name, and select the subscription the storage account is located on.
    7. Click Run
    8. The queue endpoint will be on queue property under primaryEndpoints object on the response
