Summary

Completed

New flows are created through the Power Automate for desktop console, using the New flow button.

Development takes place in the flow designer. Actions are the basic building blocks of a flow, while variables are used to store data to be used as input or output in actions.

Actions are run sequentially; however, this sequence may be changed by certain actions, like Conditionals and Loops. Conditionals modify the flow's behavior based on certain conditions, while loops enable the repetition of certain actions.

Subflows can be used to organize and reuse parts of a flow more easily.

The flow designer allows users to extensively test and troubleshoot a flow during development.

UI elements and images can be used to enable interaction with third-party applications, web pages, or images on the monitor.

To deal with unexpected circumstances, exception handling rules can be set up in most actions' properties.
