{Do you know} Use Azure Key Vault credentials in flow connections

uk365guy

Hello Everyone,

Today I am going to share my thoughts on Use Azure Key Vault credentials in flow connections.

Let’s get’s started.

You can use Azure Key Vault Credentials in your flow connections to enhance security and streamline credentials management. Here’s a brief overview of how it works:

1. Credentials Storage: Store your credentials as secrets in Azure Key Vault. This centralizes your credentials management and ensures they are securely stored.

2. Integration with Power Automate: Use the new Credentials page in Power Automate to create, edit, and share login credentials. These credentials can be used in desktop flow connections, allowing your flows to run on windows machines using the latest credentials retrieved at runtime.

3. Password Rotation: When the credentials in Azure Key Vault are updated, the connections using them are automatically updated as well. This means your desktop flows will continue to run smoothly even if the administrator changes the password.

To get started, you’ll need to configure Azure Key Vault and set up the credentials in Power Automate.

That’s it for today.

I hope this helps.

{Do you know} Self-heal UI and browser automation actions at execution with AI

uk365guy

Hello Everyone,

Today I am going to share my thoughts on the self heal UI and browser automation actions at execution with AI.

Let’s get’s started.

Self-healing UI and browser automation actions with AI is an exciting feature in Power Automate for desktop users. This features enhances the reliability of automated workflows by using AI to locate and interact with UI elements during execution.

Here are some key points:

AI-Powered Element Location: If a UI element can’t be found during execution, AI steps in to locate it. This helps in maintaining the flow without manual intervention.

Automatic Selector Repair: Once the AI locates the element, it repairs the selector, which is then used in future executions.

User Confirmation: After the AI repairs the selector, user confirmation is required to save the changes.

Optional Feature: This feature can be enabled or disabled based on user preference.

This self healing capability significantly improves the success rates of UI and web automation scenarios, making automation more robust and less prone to errors.

That’s it for today.

I hope this helps.
