i am trying to automate back office ops and was learning claude and asked to very vague prompt to build 19 worksflows across different departments … but not sure weather if I can productive all of them n deply to agentcore

so instead of going on creating auth keys from zendesk, hubspot , stripe , gmail, calendar and slack.

I asked agent to verify and show me proof against fetchsansbox managed relay for webhooks and behavioral verification of agent written code

wonderibf what are you guys doing for automating business ops

Hey guys nowadays im struck at some point so i need to create a automation for my company outlook email account. we receive too many emails RFQ's, QT, & PO and including client emails plus the follow-ups so what is the best solution for this situation. im using Claude inside of outlook but so much useful, so anyone can suggest me something please.

I'm trying to create a Microsoft To Do task only when someone u/mentions me in an Azure DevOps work item comment.

Flow:

When a new email arrives (V3)
→ Html to text
→ Condition
→ Add a to-do (V3)

Sender is azuredevops@microsoft.com.

I can't simply filter by sender because I receive other Azure DevOps notifications that should NOT create tasks.

The mention emails visually contain:

Person Name mentioned you in To Do 7326

The email is HTML and parts of this sentence are hyperlinks.

In Power Automate Run History, the trigger output has:

body:
<html><head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" ...

so the HTML is present in the trigger output.

However:

bodyPreview: empty

... and my Html to text action has been producing an empty result, so a Condition like:contains "mentioned you"never matches.

The trigger itself works and Add a to-do (V3) works. The problem seems specifically to be extracting/filtering the Azure DevOps HTML email body.

Question: What should I pass into Html to text (or directly into a Condition) to reliably check whether an Azure DevOps email contains “mentioned you”?

Bonus question: Is there a more reliable way to identify Azure DevOps notifications than parsing the HTML body?

Good morning everyone! It recommended that I post my need for help on this community as well. I’m getting stuck on how power automate reads a certain cell value in order to trigger something in Microsoft forms. Any help is greatly appreciated.

The project takes a batch of PDFs, extract the fields and line items, validate the results, and export structured data without manually processing every document.

A few things I've implemented:

• VLM-based extraction: Extract user-defined fields and line items from documents with varying layouts.
• Independent validation: A separate text-based pipeline provides another source of evidence, with disagreements flagged for review.
• Visual grounding: Trace extracted values back to their locations in the original PDF.
• Batch processing: Process 100+ documents in a single run.
• Structured output: Export results to JSON or Excel.

I've also benchmarked it against Azure Content Understanding on 100 documents, with my best configuration achieving 97% field-level accuracy at roughly 1/12th the cost per run in my evaluation.

I'm curious about how people here approach document-heavy workflows.

If you were building a Power Automate flow around a tool like this, how would you integrate it? For example, would you trigger extraction when a PDF lands in SharePoint or OneDrive, send the validated results into Excel or a SharePoint list, and route uncertain fields for human review?

This is a personal engineering project, not a commercial launch. I'm primarily looking for feedback on the workflow and integration possibilities.

I'd especially love to hear from anyone who's built similar flows using AI Builder, Azure Document Intelligence, or custom extraction pipelines.

This was built because Azure content understanding is quite expensive at scale

I built a flow that posts to a Teams channel whenever someone fills out a Microsoft form, which updates to a Sharepoint list. The workflow is supposed to check based on specific branch and service the contract is being submitted for. I'm planning on having it notify me twice a week.

Right now, my loop returns the same info 5 times--that's the # I've set it to limit notifications while testing--and it doesn't even work based on specific service. For example, I'll select Laundry and it'll return all the services, including Laundry, and it won't necessarily even prioritize Laundry.

I'm new to PA so I haven't been playing around with it for very long, so any help is appreciated.

i need to know how to set a mouse click to last more than just a tap where the hell are the click and hold settings all i can find are for the modifier keys and that is litterally useless why did they even make that bit if you cant use it for shit

I have created a flow wherein it sends out an email to the client who made a request and to our team as well notifying about the new request. These two email actions run parallel to each other. I have been facing a lot of issues with the flow taking too much time to run and in cases where a requestor submits mutiple requests to me. Each request is being sent out as a separate email. Previously i was using a V3 Email Action and then later switched to Shared Inbox V2 after I saw the limit how many emails it can send in a day. Can somebody help me out with this issue. Thanks in advance!

How do you guys monitor your Power Automate flows, especially when managing lots of them?
Do you rely on Microsoft’s built-in notifications, build your own alerts, or use third-party tools?
Curious what works for you and what’s still frustrating.

Hi all, I'm working with Survey123 that has 1 video and 10 photo questions. (It needs to be like this due who is submitting the surveys). I would like to send an email with the attachments when a survey is submitted. Right now my flow only works if there are no null attachments and if the total size is less then what google can send.

Thanks!

Hi folx,

A few years ago, the genuises of this community helped me solve a problem that I had for years. Unfortunately, not being one of those genuises, I didn't save that information when I moved jobs and now I'm in need of the same assistance getting over the gaps of my power automate knowledge.

I am designing an approval flow connecting forms with the approvals app in Teams. One flow will be a sequential approval (I approve and then another), and another flow will only require one approval. In either, folx are required to upload a number of attachments. When the flow moves, these attachments end up saving in a folder in my OneDrive where they then have to be retrieved. In the approval received, the attachment appears but does not open when clicked.

The previous solution included things I never would have found on my own, so I have no idea where to even begin this time. I remember there being something related to 'schema' (??) and someone shared something that looked like code, which I pasted into the approval which made them appear. That's literally all I know. Any insight, assistance, or help would be so appreciated. And, I swear, I'll save this info this time!

Everytime I launch Excel thru power automate, the Ychart tab dissapears. New File or existing… still no Ycharts.

I open excel manually and Ycharts appears. My add in shows it is installed on the files Ycharts dissapears.

Hi,
I'm new to PA, and created a flow with the help of AI, to pull files from a vendor's SFTP on a daily basis, for a PowerBI report.

The vendor has since blocked the azure connections PA was creating to the SFTP, due to there being too many simultaneous connections.

I turned down the 'degree of parallelism' to "1" from 20 on the Apply to each step, and we tested live on a call with the vendor, but they could see PA opening 4-5 connections simultaneously. Their security policy then kicked in and blocked us again after hitting the hard limit of 5.
They also said that it didn't appear the connections were getting closed between each test run on the call - they had to manually terminate the connections to be able to test.

Chunking is enabled.

The vendor's engineer with some PA experience reviewed the flow, and couldn't find any issues with it. I've pasted it below.

• Are these multiple connections a bug or something expected with the flow?
  
• Are we missing some setting?
  
• If DoP is set to 1 - why are multiple connections being opened?

As the files are named the same every time, AI suggested the flow could be redesigned to pick up each file by name, one at a time. Would delete the list files step, and remove the apply to each loop, which 'may' be opening more connections than needed.

Does that sound sensible, likely to fix the issue?

If PA is not the way to go with file retrieval - are there any other options? I don't know if Filezilla / WinSCP have automated options, ideally this process doesn't live on my local account.

Thanks,

Actualmente me llegan correos todos los días con PDF en Outlook y tengo que traducirlos a español, y quiero que genere un resumen general y envie el correo. Como podría hacerlo de forma rápida? ¿Se podría conectar con copilot? Quiero automatizarlo con Power Automate.

How does everyone organise their flows?

I've started naming conventions but I have alot of flows and im starting to get confused with them all. Do you have an off-line library or just add descriptions and build guides inside the flow somewhere?

I kept finding myself wanting to inspect the actual JSON behind a flow, especially when debugging larger flows or using an AI to help with them.

I ended up building a browser extension that adds a JSON editor directly to the Power Automate designer.

It uses Monaco Editor and lets you edit, validate, save and publish the current flow without going through the usual export → unzip → edit → import process.

I’ve just made it publicly available and I’d be interested to hear what other Power Automate users think.
