We’re thrilled to announce that Templates support for Azure Logic Apps Standard, previously in Public Preview, is now officially Generally Available (GA)! Over the course of the preview, we’ve expanded the library of templates, adding significant value to streamline your workflow development process.
Additionally, we are introducing Accelerators—multi-workflow templates designed to provide comprehensive solutions for complex business processes. We’re excited to grow this collection further with the support and feedback of our community and customers.
Note - Accelerators will be available everywhere in January next year (Jan'25)
What’s New
- Templates Now Generally Available
Templates have reached GA status, offering the full promise of enterprise-grade support and functionality for this capability. - Accelerators
With the new support for Accelerators, you can leverage templates that integrate multiple workflows to achieve broader business outcomes seamlessly. - Blank Workflow Support
To simplify your decision-making process, the Template Gallery now supports creating blank workflows. If you find a template that meets your business needs, you can use it immediately. If not, you can easily create a blank workflow without leaving the gallery, ensuring a smooth experience with minimal context switching. - Expanded Template Library
Since the preview, we’ve added numerous templates, including AI-powered solutions for document indexing and chat workflows. - Streamlined Template Creation Process
We’ve enhanced the process of creating and customizing templates. Connections and parameters can now be updated easily by running a dedicated script, saving you time and effort.
Getting Started
- To access templates, select Workflows within your Logic Apps Standard resource. Then select ‘Add from Template’
- This would open the templates gallery. You have multiple ways to filter results on this page. You can filter by connectors or by category (for example – AI, design patterns and more). You can also do a free text search.
- Accelerators can exclusively also be found under the Accelerators tab.
- If you do not find the template you are looking for, you can choose the blank workflow tile which would guide you to create a blank workflow.
- When you select any accelerator, it opens a page that gives you an Overview of the scenario including the description and key features. It also shows you the workflows in the package as well as connections used by those workflows. The connection status shows what connections are already available and what would need to created.
- When you click on a workflow, you can see more specific details about that workflow, including description, pre-requisites and the read only view of the workflow itself.
- When you chose to use a template, it opens a wizard to provide the necessary configurations. The first step is to provide the name of the workflow. There would be default name and state of the workflow. You can accept the defaults or update them (which is optional).
- The next step is to configure the connections. Here you will see connections grouped by workflow. For shared connections, you need to create them once and they will be used from all relevant workflows
- Next step is to configure the parameters used in the workflows. When you click on the parameter name, it would give more details about the parameters. Since parameters can be shared across workflows, it also shows the workflows using a parameter
- The final step is to review everything and if you are satisfied then go ahead and select Create. When this step is completed, you will see the workflows created in your Logic App. You can access them from the Workflows menu.
