This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2023 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Power Automate 2023 Wave 2.
The 5th of the new functionality in the Cloud Flows section is make changes in draft mode for solution cloud flows.
Users have told us that they’re unable to begin creating or editing a flow until they have a large amount of time available because they can’t pause halfway through. Makers can now make changes to solution cloud flows in draft mode and publish when changes are complete. This allows the flexibility to create and edit regardless of the amount of time available, so you can concentrate on other tasks.
Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview: –
General Availability: Nov 2023
Feature Details
Currently, makers can’t save a flow with errors and can’t save a draft version of a flow. With this feature, makers can make changes to solution cloud flows in draft mode, including when there are errors and publish when changes are complete.
My Opinion
Now this is the feature I have been wanting since I started working with Power Automate. It’s such a basic thing, that I have been amazed that you couldn’t save a flow part way through working on it and come back to finish it later.
