Hi,

With the deprecation of the O365 Connector looming, I am looking into replacing my existing webhook connections with a workflow. I created a "Post card in a chat or channel" workflow which is connected to my Teams account. I set "Post as" was set to "Flow bot," (snippet attached) workflow

expected behavior: post as the bot without including my user info in any cards that it posts. In reality it is posting the cards to the Teams channel as "Kajandere, Jelena" where I really just want it to post as a bot.

Could you please assist to resolve

Best Regards,

Jelena

    This is by design.
    If you want to send by using option 'Flow bot', it will send as below
    User's image

    User's image

    If you want the sender's name only to be reflected without via Workflows text, you can choose below option while setting up/editing the workflow.
    User's image

    This will send the card as below:
    User's image
