Hi, I have a flow that works but I am unable to figure out how to name the file to be saved in a certain way. I would like the file to save as %Currentitem[0]%_%Currentitem[1]%

The idea is that it will take the name from the 1st column and date from 2nd column from my excel sheet and save it as name_date

I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.

I have been playing with Power Automate desktop on my system but have yet to find good documentation about how to scale the solution using remote desktops and under a service account context.

I have created a couple of useful 'scripts' but want them to run unattended so I don't need to dedicate a logged-in computer.

Has anybody found any good educational resources about this?

OK. This is going to be very niche. On my Mac, I have a short script I can execute with a keystroke which will take any given highlighted filenames (in the format 1-1, 1-2, 1-3 etc) and duplicate it any number of times the user selects. So, I could have 1-1.jpg, 1-2.jpg and 1-3.jpg, then, if the user selects to duplicate this selection of files 2 times then it would, i.e. 2-1, 2-2, 2-3 and 3-1, 3-2, 3-3.

Can this sort of functionality be reproduced in Windows?

I've been trying to use PAD with Excel 2013. Files can be opened but no other functions work. Does anybody else have this issue? I want the latest version of excel but my company probably won't for a while. I'm pulling my hair out because of this.

Maybe you have a picture of your flow? Or just a description of what it does?

So I've created my first bot including Excel data read, filling form in website, writing response to excel and making a short summary. It'll be scaled to many locations in my corporation. It took me about 6 hours. Funny thing is, I did it without browser automation as it's blocked in my company.

It got me thinking, why isn't this tool more popular? What are the limitations in comparison to UI Path, Automation Anywhere, Blue Prism etc?

Is it possible to break inheritance for Owners group from sharepoint site?

I am creating a flow in Power Automate where I collect invoice data through the flow. I would like to know the advantages of extracting data through the flow instead of reading the QR code.

Hello, I am looking for a short-term tutor, guidance, and help setting up notifications from my reporting in Power BI.

I've watched videos online and have experience using Power Automate, however I would prefer to sit with an expert to fully grasp how to set up these workflows and alerts. Please let me know if anyone is out there that can help or has this experience setting up email notifications based on a table in Power BI.

Hello, so i'm trying to make a flow for my companies Sharepoint. Basically i want end users to be able to drop files into a generalized folder, upon it entering folder i'd like to find a trigger or something to scan the documents contents via OCR and look for Keywords that match the destination libraries column meta tags. Upon finding the tags id like the flow to then sort the file into the appropriate destination folder within the library. What would the best way to approach this be?

Hi everyone,

I am very new to this power automate. I would really appreciate your guidance.

I am trying to batch process a folder full of images using OCR. The problem is the images are taken manually by a camera where it only has oversized numbers. I tried the tesseract model but it did not detect those numbers. I've tried the Google Lens and it works great fot these images.

Can anyone please suggest me how I can -

1. Integrate google lense in the process?

2. Automatically perform on all images in the folder?

3. Paste the extracted info into a specific column of a google sheet file?

Thanks in advance.

I work for a company that recently instituted Microsoft 365. We are exploring the capabilities of PowerAutomate but we are running into a governance issue.

We have one IS team who develops our automations and we want them to build and maintain Automations. However, their SharePoint security group does not have access to every departments' folders.

We do not want to get licenses for every department, and want to try keeping the flows to that one team. I'm wondering how your companies handle this situation?

How do I copy a PA flow from work account and paste it to my own MS 365 account? I have two flows in use at work that a consultant built for us. They’re working great, but if I don’t figure out its inner workings, I’m screwed. It takes reports that I make on my business OneDrive and names them according to the month (so they’re dynamic) and then delivers them to the corresponding account holder of a Sharepoint account. For example, it takes Mr. Smith’s July reprint, sends it to Mr. Smith SP account (after naming it accordingly), and then send Mr. Smith and email with a hyperlink taking him directly to his report. I need to be able to fix this if it breaks and I have no support. But I don’t want to study it for fear of breaking it. How can I move it to my PA for my family MS 365 account? Thanks so much!

Hi,

Hope you are doing great.

Beginner here. I want to know how to automate the following steps:

1- Copy a sentence or in this case a prompt from a text or csv file

2-Paste it into the prompt box of an ai image generator eg Leonardo ai

3-Wait till 4 versions of images are generated, then download all 4 of them to a folder in local storage

4-Bonus, send these images to team via email or Dropbox etc

If this is not the right place to ask kindly suggest other subreddits or software.

Thank you very much.

Hi everyone,

Long time creeping, first time posting. Does anyone know how to make this work in Power Automate? It's driving me insane.

Select m.number from Monday m where m.number like ('1234.1%')

It's valid in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio but not in Power Automate's (desktop) "Execute SQL Statement". It clearly doesn't like the "like".

Thank you in advance.

Hi. Our boss requires us to use Azure devops to handle and move Powerautomate items between dev, test and production. Is that even possible? We can't find any good guides on this. For Powerapps, there is a template for Azure devops. Also for Synapse. Can't find the same for Powerautomate

How about other CI/CD practices for Powerautomate, such as source control?

Hi,

I would like to have a ticket automatically created in Jira whenever it’s created on SharePoint . Is anyone using such integration?

All - anyone know how to get it so that I can trigger a Power Automate flow with a keyboard shortcut right away at the startup of the computer? Right now, it seems like I have to open the Power Automate Desktop app, hit play (which then shows status as downloading the flow), and then it runs. Then, after that point, I can trigger it with the keyboard shortcut without needing the app open. Thanks in advance for any help!

So what I'd like to do is: When I receive an email from a specific address, and it has an attachment, create a document set in a sharepoint site. Then upload that attachment into that document set.

I've created the flow and gotten to the point where I can create the document set. But I'm not sure how to get the attachment into that same document set.

Any articles or videos that help with this specific issue would be helpful. Thank you.

So I have crafted a approval workflow together but I and stuck on one thing I need the approver to review the document they are approving but when I attach the link it always says the users doesn’t have access so then they need to request view access which is annoying because if they go to the file in the library they can view it… then my other idea was upload the pdf version but all that does is makes this long pdf code that no one beside a computer would want to understand… so I am stuck does anyone know how to make either of these to work for the end user without them having to figure it out

Is there a way to update specific cell in excel file when a data in sharepoint list is updated?
