Capabilities of Flow (as compared to SP Designer)

Silver Contributor

I think as I understand it Flow is the next evolution of SharePoint Designer Workflows?

 

I have yet to have time to really dive into Flow, but in order to consider eventually upgrading solutions away from Designer, there are a few critical features that I would be looking for:

 

  • Call HTTPS Web Service
  • Variable types like Dictionarys
  • Item-Level Permissions
  • App-Level / Impersonation Steps
  • Workflow Level Logging

 

Can anyone speak to these capabilities being part of the tool?
