Power Automate has transformed how organisations build automation within Dynamics 365 and the Power Platform. Teams can automate processes quickly, reduce manual effort, and deliver business value without extensive custom development. At the same time, I have noticed an interesting challenge in some organizations as Power Platform adoption matures. Over time, hundreds of flows can be created by different teams, often with varying levels of governance, documentation, and ownership. Business logic may become distributed across multiple automations, making troubleshooting, maintenance, and long-term support more complex. On the other hand, many organisations have successfully scaled Power Automate by implementing strong governance practices and automation standards. I'm interested in hearing different perspectives from the community. Have you seen Power Automate become difficult to manage at scale, or has it reduced technical debt in your organization? What governance, architecture, or operational practices have worked best for balancing innovation with maintainability?Build an AI Resume Screening Multi-Agent

Build an AI Agent That Does It For You.
Hi everyone 👋 A few weeks ago, I started thinking about how much time businesses still spend writing repetitive promotional emails manually every month. The process is usually the same: review customer purchase history check active discounts write personalized emails send them one by one So I decided to build a simple AI-powered workflow that could automate the entire process. For Edition #003 of my newsletter, I created an AI agent that: ✅ reads customer purchase data ✅ matches category-based discounts ✅ generates personalized promotional emails using AI ✅ sends emails automatically What I enjoyed most while building this project was seeing how even small personalization details can completely change the customer experience. Instead of sending generic promotions, the workflow creates emails tailored to each customer’s purchases and interests. In this edition, I shared: the real-world use case the complete workflow approach implementation screenshots sample datasets GitHub project files practical automation tips 📌 View the newsletter If you enjoy building practical AI automations or exploring real-world AI agent ideas, I think you’ll enjoy this edition. I’d genuinely love to hear your thoughts and learn how others are approaching AI-driven automation in their own projects 🙌
Feature Request – Read-only and Locked Fields for Pre-filled Microsoft Forms
Microsoft Forms has recently introduced support for pre-filled responses, which is a very valuable addition. However, the lack of read-only fields significantly limits its usability in real-world and enterprise application scenarios. In many workflows, especially those involving bots, kiosks, or guided user interactions, some fields must be pre-populated with system-generated data such as user identity, email, or contextual information. These fields need to remain visible to the user for transparency, but must not be editable in order to guarantee data integrity and prevent tampering. Currently, there is no reliable way to enforce this behavior. Even when using pre-filled URLs, users can still modify the values before submission. This creates a risk of data inconsistency and makes it difficult to maintain a secure and synchronized interaction between the client and backend systems. This is not just a UX limitation, but also a data integrity issue in integrated workflows. As a result, developers are forced to implement server-side validation and ignore user-provided values for critical fields, which defeats the purpose of pre-filling them in the first place. This forces developers to rely entirely on server-side validation, reducing the effectiveness of pre-filled data and introducing unnecessary complexity. While Power Apps can address this limitation, it is often too complex and heavy for simple scenarios where Microsoft Forms would otherwise be perfectly adequate. Suggested improvement: - Allow form fields to be marked as read-only or locked - Optionally support hidden or system fields - Allow pre-filled values to be protected against tampering - Preserve compatibility with pre-filled URLs This feature would enable Microsoft Forms to be used in secure, system-driven workflows without requiring migration to more complex platforms.
Power Automate not pulling all form answers
I have a flow that triggers fine using the "When a new response is submitted" but the "Get response details" is only returning a few of the answers submitted. I can see the full submission the the back end of forms but Power Automate is not pulling a lot of the submitted answers. It has worked fine for 50 times, the automation is long and complex so if possible id like to stay away from deleting and restoring the trigger and get response details...Microsoft 365 & Power Platform Community call

I am developing a PowerAutomate flow, I want to use the function "post message in chat or channel", I can send messages to anyone in "one to one" private chats but not on the private chat I have with myself. Has somebody found a way to message himself via power automate? I can't create it as a "new chat" in PA because it says users cannot be duplicate. Then I figured out I had to find the ID of the chat with myself. I tried using the microsoft graph api to retrieve the id from "me/chats" but the chat with myself is not shown. I tried many different filters and expansions with no success. I also tried analyzing the id itself and discovered that, in the case of "one to one" chats, it's made of {the sender id} and {the receiver id} I then tried constructing an id that contains 19:{myuserid}_{myuserid}@{domain} but it responds that there is no record. I tried many combinations, thanks for the help.
