At the Ignite 2019, Microsoft announced the rebranding of Microsoft Rebrands Flow as Power Automate, the latest additions, and features to its Power Platform family. It brings in line with the rest of the platforms.
As a part of Power Platform alongside Power BI and PowerApps, the rebranding aligns with those other services. Moreover, Microsoft is adding support for RPA – Robotic Process Automation. With the integration of RAP, the app can support UI flows and become an end-to-end automation solution. It allows you to do both API-based automation and UI-based automation.
In the case of what Power Automate offers there are a few changes from the overall Microsoft Rebrands Flow experience. With this service, users can create automated workflows across applications. It’s known as an enterprise-oriented IFTTT competitor. Users can gather data collected, file synchronization, and notifications using automated chains.
With the help of AI and bots, RPA automates business processes, repetitive tasks, and freeing up staff to be more productive. You can easily create UI flows in Power Automate, which requires minimal coding knowledge. This means anyone from your organization can be a developer now.
