    Hi Anders, Excellent video. I have a question.. the desktop flow that does the web scrapping was built on your computer. For unattended bot, Do I need to deploy the package from local computer to Azure VM for this automation to work?

    I want to make a flow that will classify pdf, word, excel documents in different folders. How can I trigger the flow when the main folder just receive a new file. The file will automatically be classified in it's appropriate folder. The question is to trigger a flow when a folder status change.

    • @andersjensenorg
      @andersjensenorg  Рік тому

      Great question. Either have a desktop robot, that scans the folder. Or even better use the When a file is created (OneDrive or SharePoint) in Power Automate Cloud 🙂 That OneDrive/SharePoint require the files to be in either of those storage locations. Kind regards, Anders

    If the PAD flow involves opening a large excel file and manipulating it, is there still no need to download PAD on the VM?

    • @andersjensenorg
      @andersjensenorg  Рік тому +1

      If you want to use PAD, yes. But you can do it in PA Cloud and leverage the workflow engine here 🙂

    Hi Anders, sir, I have a doubt about whether we can check whether the power automation agent is running or not on the virtual desktop.? using power automate desktop flow actions.

    Great video, how about starting the VM when the bot it triggered? Are we able to add an ps (Invoke-AzResourceAction?) which will first start the vm, wait until it is running and them start the edge browser. Afterwards shut down the VM, This would save many DKKs 🙂. Perhaps you already recorded something like this?

    I have a MAC m1 running Power automate on parallels (virtual machine), but unfortunatelly it is absurdly slow. Im thinking about using an azure VM, my workflows are really simple, which is the cheapest VM u think we can use?
    Thank you

      just read on microsoft website, ARM processors are not suported for power automate.. Thats probably why it is so painfully slow on my computer :(

      Hey Tacius. Azure works well, but I honestly haven't got the idea, which is the cheapest we can use. I recommend stopping the VB, when we don't use it (then we only pay for storage) 🙂 Kind regards, Anders
