Power Automate is part of the Power Platform from Microsoft.
Power Platform is a collection of services which allow organisations to build their own solutions through low- or no-code services, such as Power BI (reporting), Power Apps (custom apps), Power Pages (websites) and Power Automate (automation). The idea is that they are low- or no-code and therefore do not require a developer to build the solution, and also allow for more rapid building than traditional applications, websites or other extensions.
We looked specifically at Power Automate in this webinar; Power Automate lets users create automated workflows between applications and services, allowing for repetitive business processes such as communications and approvals, to be automated.
As a relevant aside, I am currently writing two series of articles on Power Automate; the first is Working with Power Automate and the second is In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Power Automate), how do I….
