Power Automate

Most systems of record have data stored in data structures that allow you to easily extract information about the analyzed entity (case-level data) and historical changes on those entities (event-level data). The attributes are also stored in a normalized form. The single-table approach to event log creation requires you to do inefficient transformations. With this feature, Power Automate Process Mining supports the case-event entity-based data structure plus a normalized form of attributes. This speeds up the ingestion process in both the transformation and import to process model phases and reduces the storage capacity needed.

When you add an action, you can view property values for multiple steps at design time, or output values for multiple steps at runtime. The inline view shows this information directly on the cards, so you can review and compare values across several steps at once.

Without the inline view, you select each card individually to see its value in the side pane, and you can view only one step's value at a time. This makes it harder to compare values across steps.

You can choose which experience you prefer. The current side pane experience remains the default. You can switch to the inline view whenever you want and switch back at any time.

Real business processes rarely flow as a single, linear instance. Events routinely touch several objects of different types at the same time (for example, creating an invoice for a specific order, or shipping a package that contains items from multiple orders). Object-centric process mining captures that reality by recording events that relate to many objects and object types in one process, preserving their relationships end‑to‑end.

Here's the key idea: Instead of “one case → one sequence of activities,” object-centric process mining lets one event belong to multiple objects (and object types), keeping the full context…

With flow groups, you can share Process license capacity across up to 25 cloud flows, optimizing license allocation and reducing costs for organizations operating higher-volume workflows that don't need their own dedicated capacity.

Prerequisites:

Power Automate Process licenses available to the environment

Cloud flows stored in solutions

Power Automate maker permissions

Business Value:

Save costs, reduce management effort, and improve resource utilization by efficiently sharing capacity across multiple flows.

Enabled for:

Enabled for admins/makers/marketers automatically

The desktop flow checker in the Power Automate portal extends rule‑based static analysis to provide configurable notifications for violations detected across all desktop flows in an environment. Administrators can select the notification type (error, warning, or informational), adjust severity levels, and define parameters such as thresholds, recurrence, and scope. The checker uses the same rule engine that runs during initialization and analysis of flows, loading default and custom rules to evaluate quality, performance, and maintainability issues.

Business Value:

As an administrator, you need a clear way to track quality issues across the…

This feature introduces PGP-specific encryption and decryption actions that use OpenPGP compatible public and private keys. You can encrypt files or data payloads using a recipient public key and decrypt incoming PGP-encrypted content using a corresponding private key and passphrase. The actions support standard PGP formats, making them suitable for interoperability with third-party systems that rely on PGP for secure data exchange. The actions appear in the action picker with no additional UI changes.

The feature is not enabled automatically. To use it, you add a PGP encryption or PGP decryption action to your workflow and configure the…

This feature introduces built-in rules that calculate time and cost savings for desktop flows based on successful runs. You can define how long a task previously took when performed manually and let the platform compute time saved using flow run data. Cost savings can be estimated by applying hourly rates or custom monetary baselines that scale with run volume. Savings accumulate automatically as flows run, making the impact of automation measurable over time.

The feature is not enabled automatically. To use it, you configure time-saving and money-saving rules for a desktop flow by specifying manual run duration and cost baselines. Once…

This feature introduces advanced debugging support by allowing you to assign default values to variables directly within the desktop flow designer. During debugging sessions, when you are starting the execution from a specific step of the automation, the assigned default values are automatically applied, enabling you to test specific scenarios without modifying actions or rerunning the flow from the beginning. This is especially useful when working with complex logic, conditions, or branches that depend on variable state.

The feature is enabled automatically. To use it, edit a variable in the designer and define a default value for…
