Understanding Power Automate

How Microsoft Power Automate Works

At its core, Power Automate is built around flows — automated sequences that connect your apps and services to handle tasks without human intervention.

1

Triggers

Every flow begins with a trigger — an event that starts the automation. Triggers include receiving an email, updating a SharePoint list item, submitting a form, or a scheduled time.

2

Actions

After the trigger fires, Power Automate executes a series of actions: sending an email, updating a database, posting a Teams message, creating a record, or calling an external API.

3

Logic & Conditions

Apply conditions, switches, loops and expressions to introduce intelligent logic — routing approvals to different people based on department, amount, or any business rule.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Microsoft Power Automate is the rebrand of Microsoft Flow, launched in 2019. It offers all the original workflow automation capabilities plus expanded features including Robotic Process Automation (RPA), AI Builder, and deeper integration with the broader Microsoft Power Platform including PowerApps, Power BI and Dataverse.

Basic Power Automate capabilities are included in most Microsoft 365 business subscriptions. For more advanced flows, premium connectors, or RPA (attended/unattended bots), you'll need standalone Power Automate licences. SPS can advise on the right licensing for your specific requirements.

Simple workflows — like a SharePoint list notification or a basic approval — can be live within a day or two. More complex multi-stage approval flows with integrations typically take one to two weeks. We scope every project during the discovery session so you have a clear timeline before we start.

Yes — Power Automate offers over 900 out-of-the-box connectors including Salesforce, SAP, Dropbox, Twitter, Google services and many more. For systems without a native connector, SPS can build custom connectors using REST APIs, making it compatible with virtually any platform.

Absolutely — that's one of its biggest strengths. Power Automate's drag-and-drop interface enables business users to create and manage flows with no coding experience. Our training programmes go further, creating self-sufficient "flow makers" within your organisation.

Yes. We offer flexible managed support packages covering bug fixes, enhancements, performance monitoring and Microsoft update impact reviews. Whether you need ad-hoc support or a dedicated monthly retainer, we have an option to suit your needs and budget.
