What is Microsoft Flow?

Microsoft Flow is a tool designed to automate tasks, such as alerts, notifications, data collection, and communications.

It allows you to save time on day-to-day tasks, you can choose from almost 300 applications to increase the efficiency of your business.

Transform your business with Microsoft Flow

Simple and fluid integration with other applications or connectors: A connector can link 2 applications, in this way we can load the data from one application to another

Fast and safe automation: It allows us to create very safe flows without the need to generate any code

Share and access data: With the use of Microsoft Flow and its connectors we can pass data very easily

Create flows for monotonous tasks: Many day-to-day tasks are very tedious, create simple flows to perform all these tasks and thus improve your productivity

Advanced flows: You can also create very large flows that help many workers with some tasks

How does it work?

In the operation of Microsoft Flow the most important thing is the connectors. Each connector or application has three important elements:

Triggers : They are those that start the workflow. For example, "when the file is uploaded to SharePoint" or "when an email is sent." At the very least, a connector has to have a trigger, otherwise the flow won't work.
Actions: Once the flow is executed, we must choose the actions to be carried out. For example, when someone sends us an email from a certain address, I want Microsoft Flow to «save the document to a certain SharePoint ».
Connections: We cannot forget that when we want to connect two applications, Microsoft Flow will ask us for your credentials (username and password) of each application that we want to use.

How do you start a workflow?

Once the flow is done, we will have it ready to go.

The first thing we have to do is activate it, if for example one day we are not interested in the flow working we can deactivate it without problems.

When activating the flow, it is only necessary to run the chosen trigger in the flow for the flow to run.

This means that whenever the trigger is executed, the flow will be executed.
