Introduction to UI Flows

Microsoft has come up with a boom by introducing UI Flows. UI flows helps you to automate the rework that you do on daily basis.






For example, you might be doing Bidding on any freelancer site and maintaining data in a local excel. You at the end of the week/day want to submit data to some portal like dynamic365.

You can also use this to send emails to list of people in excel.

UI flow is the solution to help you with.

Note: UI flows don't need any expertise with SharePoint/.NET or any other development language. Just prepare an algorithm and get started.

What you need to get Started?

Just download Power Automate Desktop.

You just need to train your UI flow on what to mimic whenever flow is triggered. Power automate allows you to record your actions on windows as well as web browsers.

You don't need any additional tool for recording windows/desktop actions, However you will need to add Power Automate add-in for recording actions to perform in browser.

Supported Browsers

- Firefox

- Chrome

- Microsoft Edge

- Internet Explorer

Lets try to understand this tool a bit further. I will be sharing more blogs related to this topic.


Thanks,
