Create the UI Flow in Power Automate Desktopįirst download and install Power Automate Desktop (you'll need at least Windows 10 Pro for this - unfortunately Windows 10 Home won't cut it). Example 1 - Auto Shut Down with Power Automate DesktopĮver forget to shut down your computer or need a reminder to do-so before leaving work or going to bed? In this example I'll show you how to set up a very basic UI Flow to do just that, and trigger it with Power Automate. In the following sections I'll demonstrate a couple of examples of things you can do to leverage the power of Power Automate and UI Flows to make your day just a little bit easier. This is useful for a range of activities, particularly in legacy applications which don't integrate or play well with others. Unlike a Macro, UI Flows can prompt the user for inputs and are able to pass data back to Microsoft Flow. If you've ever heard of, or played with a Microsoft Excel Macro, you'll immediately recognise the power of such a capability - now imagine that it extends to your entire desktop. UI Flows allow users to design, record, and modify a set of actions such as opening software, clicking on menu items, copying and pasting information (to name a few), and then to automate the playback of those actions. They are created using Power Automate Desktop and allow users to set up automations which can interact with their computer desktop and applications. UI Flows are an extension of the Power Automate capability. The improved turn-around time of processes leads to improved output and reduced monotony of tasks. Automations lead to happier and satisfied staff and customers.Once validated an automation will work error free. Quality assurance during the design of automations leads to reduced errors throughout a process. The quality of the work is improved due to reduced errors.Automated processes offer improved visibility and control of business processes.Automations can perform the same task that a human does in a fraction of the time. Computers work faster than humans at repetitive tasks.
The benefits of automation for most office workers is as follows: With Microsoft Power Automate (Flow) for Office 365, you can create automated business processes, saves you time in performing repetitive tasks on a regular basis, freeing you up to focus on the more important tasks.
