Power Automate

Microsoft’s RPA (Robotic Process Automation) and DPA (Digital Process Automation) product to create and run low-code flows accessing various connectors, augmented by AI/ML

Overview

This article provides a hands-on tour with commentary.

NOTE: Content here are my personal opinions, and not intended to represent any employer (past or present). “PROTIP:” here highlight information I haven’t seen elsewhere on the internet because it is hard-won, little-know but significant facts based on my personal research and experience.

Microsoft’s PowerAutomate marketing homepage at https://powerautomate.microsoft.com/en-us says:

“Streamline repetitive tasks and paperless processes”

Competitors to Microsoft are:

Automation Anywhere
UiPath
Tricentis
etc.

MS Power Platform Components

BTW “Power Automate” is the 2019 rebranding of “Microsoft Flow” introduced in 2016 and also replaces SharePoint 2010 Flows introduced November 2020.

“Power Automate” is one of Microsoft’s “Power Platform” offerings for “citizen developers” using the low-code development platform:

Feature	Component Name
database store	Microsoft Dataverse	DaaS (Database as a Service) common data services
external interfaces	Connectors	to exchange data with established and custom APIs
AI/ML form processing	AI Builder	-
automation	Power Automate Desktop	RPA (UI Flows designer)
app dev	Power Apps	low-code custom mobile/web app development environment
analytics and visualization	Power BI	-
chatbots	Power Virtual Agent and visualization -

Menus are similar:

For users:	Fo developers:

“Power App” is the designer GUI for Flows.

Get Started

Quickstart:

If you’re new to Microsoft and Azure, Sign-up and sign-in to:

https://flow.microsoft.com

BTW powerautomate.com now redirects to
https://us.flow.microsoft.com/en-us if the server detects that you’re from the US.

Notice at the upper-left “Office 365”.
If you’re a 365 Administrator, sign in using your Microsoft 365 credentials (@inmicrosoft.com) at:

https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com
If you have an Office 365 user account, sign on to:

office.com

Click the menu icon (9 dots), then “All apps”, then “Power Automate”.

REMEMBER: Each “Flow” is a distinct (automated) workflow, akin to a program module.

There are two types of Flows which serve different but complementary purposes in an organization’s overall business process management (BPM) strategies and initiatives:

Attended RPA is actually DPA (Digital Process Automation), which is not intended to fully replace tasks completed by humans.
Unattended RPA

Under “Monitor” is where you’ll see alerts, runs, and notifications for

“Cloud Flow activity” for flows which run on the cloud

“Desktop flow runs” for flows which run on “Machines”.
Action Items sub-menus are “Approvals” and “Business Process Flows”

flow types
Templates provide pre-written code. Sample Templates include:
- Create an issue in Azure DevOps when an email is received.
- Automate tasks on your local computer like computing data in Excel.
- Send automatic reminders for past due tasks
- Move business data between systems on a schedule
- “process mining”
Click + Create

That’s similar to “New flow” at another menu:
Connectors to APIs from Microsoft and others which you create flow code to access. “PREMIUM” means additional charges are incurred.
- Google Calendar, Tasks
- GitHub
- Slack
- Salesforce
- Box
- ArgGIS
- Coinbase
- AccuWeather
- UnixTimeStamp
- etc.
Under Data, Connect to more than 500 data sources or any publicly available API.
Under “AI Builder”, select “Build”. Notice the hostname changes to:

https://us.flow.microsoft.com/manage/environments/e77746a0-41e1-4543-9ec2-bc8732e6ad8b/aibuilder/build

and “Models” and “Document automation”.

AI Build is NOT “pay as you go”, but up-front. Microsoft charges $150 per bot per month, which include 5,000 AI Builder service “credits”. Additional credits are $500 per month each.
Learn takes you to a separate tab containing documentation.

Power Automate

Expansion of items:

Action Items:
- Approvals
- Business process flows
Data:
- Tables
- Connections
- Custom connectors
- Gateways
Monitor:
- Cloud flow activity
- Desktop flow runs
- Desktop flow queues
- Machines
AI Builder:
- Build
- Models
- Document automation (preview)
Process advisor:
- Create
- Processes
Process Advisor

Process Advisor requires a “Premium” license.

Flow Types

“Cloud flows”
- “instant” manually triggered by human action
- automated event driven flows
- scheduled to run at a particular day/time
- Desktop flows (also called “RPA flows” for Windows 10 users)
- Business Process flows (aka Guided multi-step flows controlling Microsoft’s Dynamics 365 process)
Microsoft charges $500/month for five flows used by an unlimited number of users.

NOTE: Flows can be created using PowerAppsMaker templates.

Install Desktop

AI Builder

Each Flow is processed by a bot (as in robot) created using “AI Builder”.

Licensing

PROTIP: Know the cost implications of different Flow types at
https://flow.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing

“Power Automate Desktop is available to Windows 10 users at no additional cost” means that you can install it, but using it and creating “Flows” for others to run requires licensing.

Microsoft Dataverse is a scalable data service and app platform which lets users securely store and manage data from multiple sources and integrate that data in business applications using a common data model to ensure ease and consistency to users. Microsoft Dataverse is the common currency that enables the components of Microsoft Power Platform to work together. It’s the foundation that enables the consolidation, display, and manipulation of data.

Connectors enable you to connect apps, data, and devices in the cloud. Among the more than 275 connectors are Salesforce, Office 365, Twitter, Dropbox, Google services, SharePoint, Outlook, and YouTube. Premium connectors require additional licensing SQL Server, Survey Monkey, and Mail Chimp.

<tt>All   Built-in   Standard   Premium   Custom   My clipboard</tt>

DOCS: Custom connectors can be built to call a publicly available API, or a custom API hosted in a cloud provider. Custom connectors can be used in Power Apps, Power Automate, and Azure Logic Apps. Custom connectors can reference an OpenAPI definition or a Postman collection.

Power Apps provides a rapid low code development environment for building custom apps for business needs. It has services, connectors, and a scalable data service and app platform (Microsoft Dataverse) to allow simple integration and interaction with existing data. Power Apps enables the creation of web and mobile applications that run on all devices, but with a simple interface.

Power Automate is used to automate repetitive business processes such as communication, data collections, and decision approvals.

Triggers are only used in Power Automate and prompt a flow to begin. Triggers can be time based, such as a flow which begins every day at 8:00 am, or they could be based off of an action like creating a new row in a table or receiving an email. You will always need a trigger to tell your workflow when to run.

Actions are used in Power Automate and Power Apps. Actions are prompted by the user or a trigger and allow interaction with your data source by some function. For example, an action would be sending an email in your workflow or app or writing a new line to a data source.

Power Virtual Agents is used to create chatbots using a guided, no-code graphical interface, without the need for data scientists or developers. It minimizes the IT effort required to deploy and maintain a custom solution by empowering subject matter experts to build and maintain their own conversational solutions. Power Virtual Agents is part of Microsoft Power Platform, therefore integration into existing systems is streamlined with out-of-the-box integration with Power Automate and its ecosystems of hundreds of connectors. Users can enable chatbots to perform an action by simply calling a Power Automate flow. Flows help users automate activities or call back end systems. Users can utilize existing flows that have been created in their Power Apps environment or they can create a flow within Power Virtual Agents authoring canvas.

Power BI (Business Intelligence) is a business analytics service that delivers insights for analyzing data. It can share those insights through data visualizations which make up reports and dashboards to enable fast, informed decisions. Power BI scales across an organization, and it has built-in governance and security allowing businesses to focus on using data more than managing it.

You can consider Power BI as the analysis and insights leg of Microsoft Power Platform. It takes business data and allows you to display it in ways that makes the most sense to users. A Power BI dashboard could potentially replace a standing meeting to report out on company metrics such as sales data, progress against goals, or employee performance.
