Version history and Modified By have wrong user profile
I have exactly the same issue where my teams fill MS forms through Power Automate to SharePoint list, in the versioning comments the user profile is showing for the person who created the list instead for someone who filled the form or commented. Is anybody know any solutions to this pwcaldwell
There is currently no way to do this, the SharePoint list will show the Created By and Modified By columns as the person who owns the flow in Power Automate, not the person who triggered it.

RobElliott if you would, please read my post more closely. I said this occurred on doing an update in SharePoint Online. I didn't say it happened with the Power Automate Flow doing the update. I merely mentioned that a Flow existed and can only be manually triggered. The person in my example, just updated a list item and instead of showing their name in the version history, it showed the item creators name.
That said, this is something I posted back in May 2019. I'd have to go try to duplicate this again to see if it is still doing that. If so and I want to keep pursuing it, I'll probably create a separate list on the site (and a list from a template save of the list having the issue) and just do an update and see what happens. If it still shows the error, I'll try in a different site. If no error, then maybe it is on the list where I'm seeing the error only.
