Programmatically accessing Microsoft Flow, including the underlying administrative capabilities, has been a key request from many customers. As Microsoft Flow adoption increases and subsequently the number of environments, providing automation has been an important capability to deliver for our customers.

As part of our investments to support General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) data subject rights (DSR) requests, the Microsoft Flow and PowerApps teams released a set of PowerShell cmdlets. These cmdlets provide value beyond GDPR data subject rights requests and also allow users and tenant administrators to automate many application lifecycle management (ALM) and administrative tasks.
