Hi,
My suggestion would be to use Power Automate to call an Azure Automation Runbook. The Runbook should be using a registered enterprise application to authenticate to MS Graph and be given app-based permission to perform the action.
The runbook could be created using PowerShell and the MS Graph module. In that way, you could manage the users Entra ID properties in a secure way. However, please note that some details are missing in this explanation, such as Azure Key Vault, Webhook and certificate.
An alternative solution, but not as recommended: Create a service account with the user administrator permission. Create the Power Automate solution with that account. That should do the trick for a short-term solution (Proof of concept).
