Power Automate
Easier automation management with flows in Dataverse by default | Power Automate Blog (microsoft.com)
?
Since its release in February, there has been a?list of cloud flow creation methods and entry points?that we have been increasingly adding support for, including the Power Automate portal,?Power Automate Management connector, Power Apps,?Teams,?OneDrive, Dynamics 365,?Excel,?the new mobile app, and?SharePoint. We have one remaining integration scenario for?Project Roadmap?that will begin releasing next week.
With all integration scenarios complete, the environment setting will be generally available and turned on automatically so that environments with Dataverse will create solution cloud flows automatically. This change will begin to roll out in November.
Over a third of cloud flows are already?created in Dataverse as solution cloud flows, so this should be a minor change in environments with Dataverse. During the public preview, we have incorporated customer feedback and also monitoring system performance and storage to ensure that the creation of solution cloud flows in Dataverse has minimal effects on the definition and running of those flows.
