A well-used power auomate flow encountered an error.

connector : Microsoft Entra ID
action : Update user - Account enabled (enabled-> disabled)
error : Insufficient privileges to complete the operation.

As far as I remember, the connection was my user account, but when I made a new connection, it changed what it says as the "Microsofot Entra ID".

Is there anything that has changed in MS? Or is it my problem?

My account is assigned "Global Administrator" and "User Administrator".
