Development of the RPA flows is low-code. What is most important you can parameterize executed operations to make them even more efficient. Power Automate Desktop is an attended Robotic Process Automation solution that helps to automate manual activities on the end-user side. Power Automate Desktop tool allows you to "record" repeatable activities on your PC applications or in the browser and execute them later on. Thanks to the acquisition of Softomotive, Microsoft was able to strongly improve how attended Robotic Process Automation could work in Microsoft 365. Since that moment Power Automate Desktop did great progress. In March 2020 we have a chance to try the first applications dedicated to the client operating systems that could help in task automation.
We are far away from the last point when I was writing about RPA for Office 365. This is great information for all Office 365 users who are looking for a Robotic Process Automation platform. Microsoft announced during Microsoft Ignite 2021 that Microsoft Power Automate Desktop will be available for free for users with Windows 10 operating systems. Microsoft Power Automate Desktop becomes a free RPA solution.ĭownload, install and start automate your work using Power Automate Desktop. You could probably do this with another tool other than WinAutomation but that's the one I used.Microsoft 365 atWork partners with AFI.AI, the developer of modern data protection platform built from the ground up to deliver a fully-fidelity backup for MICROSOFT 365 and GOOGLE WORKSPACE. I generated an EXE from that WinAutomation script and I run that on a schedule from the task scheduler. Because the power automate desktop flow was now running. The next step in the WinAutomation script was simply to exit the script. Not sure why but I finally got it to point to the right place. I had to play around with the mouse positioning in WinAutomation because it seems that it's difficult to set the XY coordinates in relation to the Power Automate window itself. This was the most challenging part actually. I continued in the WinAutomation script to move the cursor 2 the run icon for the flow I wanted to execute. I happen to be an old WinAutomation user so I wrote a script with that to click on the icon which then called up power automate desktop and displayed my flows as usual. I then created an icon on my desktop that executed this EXE. The executable to call is this one on my computer: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Power Automate Desktop\" First, I had to figure out how to actually execute power automate desktop.
