Still doesn't work for me - same "cannot be installed" error. Anything obvious I am doing wrong?

kindzma - Webhook can't be triggered via the UI. The way to test is by POSTing a payload to the webhook URL. Otherwise, you will encounter below error: Flow '3xx84xxa-0xx6-0dxx-xx10-7xxxx4r4fexx' cannot be installed.

jocpelletier , if you are using Post As 'Flow bot'

then you will get option to send notification as alert.

If you are using Post As 'User' option, you do not have that option.

I've configured my Flow to "Post as: User" but since they are posted as me, channel notifications are not working. I would like to be notified when a new message is posted. I tried the "Send a mobile notification" action but require the "Power Automate" app, it's not sending a Team notif. Any solution ?
