What is Microsoft Power Automate?

Microsoft Power Automate is a low-code automation platform within the Microsoft Power Platform that lets individuals and organizations build automated workflows across cloud apps, on-premises systems, and the desktop. It supports cloud flows triggered automatically, on a schedule, or instantly, as well as desktop flows that use robotic process automation to interact with legacy applications and websites. Copilot, built directly into the flow designer, helps users describe automations in plain language and troubleshoot errors.

The platform connects to more than 1,000 data sources including SharePoint, Salesforce, Dynamics 365, and Google Sheets. Pricing is per user for attended automation, per bot for unattended RPA, and scales up with add-ons like AI Builder and process mining, making it suitable for individuals through large enterprises already invested in the Microsoft ecosystem.
