Ethereum Blockchain [DEPRECATED]

Ethereum is a smart contract blockchain. With the Ethereum Blockchain connector, you can perform actions such as submitting transactions, reading contract state, and trigger flows on contract updates.

This connector is available in the following products and regions:

Service Class Regions
Logic Apps Standard All Logic Apps regions except the following:
     -   Azure China regions
     -   US Department of Defense (DoD)
Power Automate Premium All Power Automate regions except the following:
     -   US Government (GCC High)
     -   China Cloud operated by 21Vianet
     -   US Department of Defense (DoD)

Ethereum Logic App Connector

Deprecation Information

This connector has been deprecated as of August 2020 due to diminishing support. More information will be published on timelines for disabling the connector.

Creating the connection object

Once you choose your Ethereum connector, you'll be prompted for setting up your connection. Your connection will point to an RPC endpoint and can optionally provide an Ethereum account that can be used for signing. This signing is only necessary for performing write actions on the blockchain: Deploy smart contract or Execute smart contract function (incurring gas cost). The connectors support two variations of transaction signing:

  • Private Key
    • You must provide your private key to the connection. During execution, your transaction is signed within the connector and the signed payload is sent to the RPC endpoint using SendRawTransaction.
  • On-node signing
    • You must provide your Ethereum address and password. In this case, signing will occur within the node sitting behind the RPC endpoint. As a prerequisite, you must create the account on the node. In this case, SendTransaction is used which does not leave the account unlocked on the node.

Important

You may only specify one authentication type per connection.

PrivateFor

For connectors that update contract state, you may specify the privateFor property if connecting to a Quorum transaction node (Tessera or Constellation). When specifying the connection object, you must use the on-node signing approach. To specify the privateFor property, select Add new parameter at the bottom of the connector. Once selecting privateFor, you may add a comma separated list of public keys that should have access to this private state.

Note

Due to a limitation in Quorum, when using privateFor the account is unlocked for a short period of time. For this reason, it is recommended that this node is only accessible by using a secure API key.

Known limitations

  • Indexed events are not currently supported.
  • Bytes32 return type not supported for privateFor transactions.
  • When using privateFor to call a smart contract function, the estimated gas limit is automatically doubled due to account for a gas estimation bug.

Creating a connection

The connector supports the following authentication types:

This is not shareable connection. If the power app is shared with another user, another user will be prompted to create new connection explicitly.
