The requirement would be, when we do a button click on MS PowerApps, then the Blue Prism BOT has to be triggered and should start the execution.
Your advice is appreciated!

Yes, this should be possible. One way you might try it is through a combination of Power Apps (to collect any information needed to start the process) and Power Automate (to actually trigger the process). This assumes you expose the BP process as a SOAP web service. However, Power Automate doesn't support calling SOAP web services at this time, so you have to trick it. This article about calling SOAP web service from Postman provides some context regarding this. In a nutshell, you're going to create a POST request in Automate and place the body of the regular SOAP request (the SOAP envelope) in the body of the POST request. You also need to specify HTTP Basic Authentication in Automate. It will look something like this:
You can use SoapUI to get the properly formatted SOAP body request. All you have to do is enter your BP process WSDL into SoapUI and then copy the generated request body from their and into Automate.

Hi Hi Dhnaesh,
Have you implemented the integration in between blue prism and Power Automate i.e. calling a BP process from Power Automate?
Thanks!

Power Automate is capable of calling RESTful services. If you're on Blue Prism v7 or later, the easiest approach would be to set up your PA environment to work with the Blue Prism REST API.
Cheers,
