Power automate ArcGIS Connectors for AGOL Feature layer (hosted, view)

Hi ESRI Community, I am looking for some documentation or advice on how to use Power Automate ArcGIS Connectors for ArcGIS Online Feature layer (hosted, view) layers. 

We have an editable Hosted Feature Layer, and we are using Power Automate to: 

1) Post a message to a MS Teams named group chat when a new feature is created

2) Post a message to a MS Teams named group chat when a feature is updated

From the Hosted Feature Layer, we have six editable Feature Layer (hosted, view). Edits will be made to these view layers rather than the main Hosted Feature Layer. 

We have created the Power Automate workflows, but they only trigger when the ArcGIS Connectors are pointing to the view layers, rather than the main Hosted Feature Layer. From reading other community posts (e.g. here and here) it seems that Power Automate Connectors need to point to the view layers. 

Would anyone be able to advise me if this is correct? We feel like it's overkill having to enable 'Keep track of changes to the data' on each view layer, and potentially create 12 Power Automate flows. 

Many thanks, 

Louise

I don't think any of my flows are pointing to View layers, so that sounds wrong to me. Using the main FL should work, since that is where all the data ends up.

Agreed to the comment above. It is requirement of webhooks to have changes tracking enabled and ArcGIS connectors have the same requirements for you to trigger the webhook. Webhooks in ArcGIS Online—ArcGIS Online Help | Documentation
