### Brand-new non-HTTP flows (Recurrence, connector triggers, etc.)
### Brand-new non-HTTP flows
A brand-new Recurrence or connector-triggered flow has **no prior runs** to
resubmit and no HTTP endpoint to call. This is the ONLY scenario where you
need the temporary HTTP trigger approach below. **Deploy with a temporary
HTTP trigger first, test the actions, then swap to the production trigger.**
A brand-new **Recurrence** flow needs no workaround: deploy it, then run it
immediately with `trigger_live_flow` and no `body` — same as the portal's
"Run flow" button. A body is refused; scheduled triggers take no inputs.
Compact recipe:
A brand-new **connector-triggered** flow (SharePoint, webhooks) has no prior
runs and cannot fire without a real source event. Deploy with a temporary
HTTP trigger, test the actions, then swap to the production trigger:
```python
production_trigger = definition["triggers"]
definition["triggers"] = {
"manual": {"type": "Request", "kind": "Http", "inputs": {"schema": {}}}
}
result = mcp("update_live_flow",
environmentName=ENV,
result = mcp("update_live_flow", environmentName=ENV,
flowName=FLOW_ID, # omit if creating new
definition=definition,
connectionReferences=connection_references,
definition=definition, connectionReferences=connection_references,
displayName="Overdue Invoice Notifications")
FLOW_ID = FLOW_ID or result["created"]
FLOW_ID = FLOW_ID or result["flowName"]
test = mcp("trigger_live_flow", environmentName=ENV, flowName=FLOW_ID,
mcp("trigger_live_flow", environmentName=ENV, flowName=FLOW_ID,
body={"sample": "payload"})
runs = mcp("get_live_flow_runs", environmentName=ENV, flowName=FLOW_ID, top=1)
if runs[0]["status"] == "Failed":
err = mcp("get_live_flow_run_error",
environmentName=ENV, flowName=FLOW_ID, runName=runs[0]["name"])
raise Exception(err["failedActions"][-1])
definition["triggers"] = production_trigger
mcp("update_live_flow",
environmentName=ENV,
flowName=FLOW_ID,
definition=definition,
connectionReferences=connection_references)
mcp("update_live_flow", environmentName=ENV, flowName=FLOW_ID,
definition=definition, connectionReferences=connection_references)
```
The trigger is only the entry point; testing through HTTP still exercises the
same actions. If actions use `triggerBody()` or `triggerOutputs()`, pass a
representative `trigger_live_flow.body` shaped like the production trigger
payload.
