{Do you know} Use workflows on Calendar events in Teams and Outlook.

Hello Everyone,

Today I am going to share my thoughts on use workflows on calendar events in Teams and Outlook.

Let’s get’s started.

Certainly! You can use workflows on calendar events in Microsoft Teams and Outlook to automate repetitive tasks and processes. This feature which is part of the Microsoft Power Automate platform, allows you to create flows that can be triggered at the start or end of a meeting.

For example:

Here’s how you can set up and use the workflows:

1. Select Apps from the left side of the Teams.

2. Scroll and select Workflows from the navigation on the left.

3. Choose a workflow that fits your needs.

4. Follow the prompts to set it up.

Once added, the workflow will run automatically based on the triggers you’ve configured. For instance, you could have a workflow that notifies a channel when a Planner task changes status or starts an approval process when a SharePoint list is modified.

This functionality is expected to be generally available in August 2024. It is designed to boost productivity by automating tasks related to calendar events, saving you time and effort.

That’s it for today.

I hope this helps.

{Do you know} Select instead of type email addresses in Outlook and Teams.

Hello Everyone,

Today I am going to share my thoughts on select instead of type email addresses in Outlook and Teams.

Let’s get’s started.

Microsoft is introducing a new feature that allows you to select instead of type email addresses in Outlook and Teams.

This feature will enable you to choose from email suggestions as you type in the “To” field, making the process more efficient and user-friendly. It’s set to reach general availability on August 5th, 2024.

If you’re experiencing issues with the teams add-in for Outlook not using your preferred email address for sending invites, you might want to check the default email settings in both Outlook and Teams.

Ensure that your work emails it set as the default in Outlook and that it’s also selected as the default scheduling account in Teams settings.

If the probelm persists, it could be beneficial to contact Microsoft Support for further assistance.

That’s it for today.

I hope this helps.

Microsoft has introduced a feature that simplifies the license assignment process for amdinistrators, providing a governed self-serve mechanism for premium feature process.

This feature is particularly useful for Power Automate admins who need to understand which users are utilizing Power Automate and require a premium license.

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

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.
