SUMMARY:Microsoft Power Automate - Introduction
DESCRIPTION:MICROSOFT POWER AUTOMATE\nCourse Duration: 1 Day  \n  \nOverview\nThis course delivers an instructor-led product showcase for Microsoft Power Automate from start to finish in an engaging and practical way. Power Automate is a diverse product\, turning business processes into automated\, consistent\, and visual workflows. Power Automate is designed to interweave the various products in Office 365 as well as connect to other on-premises and web-based solutions. This course will give you the confidence to select the right actions and workflow logic for your business workflows. \nAudience\nThe intended audience for this course would be those who have been using Office 365 for some time and are now looking at optimizing their existing business processes and designing new ones. \nPrerequisites\nDelegates should have some exposure to Microsoft Windows operating system and Microsoft Office 365. \nCourse Objectives\n\nAn Introduction to Microsoft Power Automate\nGetting Started with Workflows\nFlow Logic\nIntegration\nThe Mobile App\nAdministration and Maintenance\n\nModule 1:\nAn Introduction to Microsoft Power Automate   \nLet’s get started with an introduction to Microsoft Power Automate. Historically\, automating business processes typically landed in the lap of a developer in the business\, who has a good understanding of coding and the systems that they were connecting. However\, more systems deployed to businesses are encouraging a bigger focus on end user design and management. With this culture change\, end users are looking to further improve their business solutions. Power Automate brings workflow design to all audiences. It offers the building blocks for lightweight or business-critical processes. \nIn this module\, we cover an overview of the product and its application to Office 365 and third-party services. \nTopics Covered  \n\nWhat is Microsoft Power Automate?\nThe benefits of automation\nHow to get to Power Automate\n\nModule 2:\nGetting started with Power Automate   \nWe begin our discovery of Microsoft Power Automate by building our first business process. We will discuss how to use templates to get started with Power Automate or how to use a blank template to start with no defined actions. Once in the product\, we will give you a tour of the editor\, workflow management page and the home screen to help you navigate around the product. \nNext\, we will start to add\, edit\, and remove actions from our workflow template in order to customize the Power Automate for a specific business need. Once ready we will publish and trigger the workflow to test that it works as expected. We will finish this module by discussing how to turn a flow on or off as well as deleting a flow. \nTopics Covered  \n\nUsing Power Automate templates\nNavigating in Power Automate\nEditing a flow • Publish and trigger a flow\nTurn off or delete a flow\n\nModule 3:\nPower Automate logic   \nDecision making during a business process is often a bottleneck. Waiting for decisions or information to steer the workflow towards its goal is dependent on how long the involved party spends on the task. This could be mitigated if the desired information is found declared elsewhere for example\, as a document property or a form entry to name a few examples. Logic in a workflow allows existing information to push the workflow down multiple paths. This often speeds up workflow duration and minimizes human input. \nIn this module\, we will look at the core logic found in Power Automate and a practical application of each option. \nTopics Covered  \n\nAdding conditions\nDesigning switches\nUsing apply to each\nConfiguring “do until” logic\nAdding a scope\n\nModule 4:\nIntegration  \nBusinesses will often use a selection of productivity tools and services beyond Office 365. Marketing teams may use Facebook and Twitter whereas a sales team may use Salesforce to manage their customers. Power Automate provides connectors for popular services allowing your processes to extend beyond Office 365 to other web services. Connections can even be made to on-premises servers\, allowing your business systems house at the office to take part in your processes. \nTopics Covered  \n\nStandard and premium connectors\nConnecting to web services\nUsing Power Automate with on-premises data\n\nModule 5:\nThe Mobile App   \nPower Automate has a corresponding mobile app that can be used to leverage many features of Power Automate. Firstly\, it offers users the capability to build new flows\, directly from their phone or tablet. Secondly\, it can be used to manage existing flows including editing\, viewing history\, saving a copy\, disabling\, and deleting flows. You can access any approvals that have been sent to you by Power Automate and approve or reject decisions. The app also supports the push notifications that can be sent to your phone or tablet from a flow. Additionally\, you can even create buttons that appear in the app which allow you to trigger flows. This valuable app will be detailed in this module. \nTopics Covered  \n\nDownloading the mobile app\nSigning in and account management\nBuilding and managing flows\nCreating buttons\nFeeds and approvals\n\nModule 6:\nAdministration and Maintenance   \nIn our last module for Microsoft Power Automate\, we will be looking at how a business can manage their flows once they have a good uptake of the product. We will begin by discussing managing individual flows. This could be using history to discover the source of any issues and implement error handling as well as using the analytics to discover usage trends. We will discover how to share a flow which is ideal for sharing the maintenance of a flow with another colleague and how to import and export flows. Finally\, we will discuss how Office 365 administrators can shape the Power Automate experience with high-level settings that help ensure data segregation and security. \nTopics Covered  \n\nMaintaining a flow\nView history and analytics\nSharing a flow\nExport and import flows\nOffice 365 administration for Power Automate\nEnvironments\nData policies\nData integration

SUMMARY:Microsoft Power Automate - Introduction
DESCRIPTION:MICROSOFT POWER AUTOMATE\nCourse Duration: 1 Day  \n  \nOverview\nThis course delivers an instructor-led product showcase for Microsoft Power Automate from start to finish in an engaging and practical way. Power Automate is a diverse product\, turning business processes into automated\, consistent\, and visual workflows. Power Automate is designed to interweave the various products in Office 365 as well as connect to other on-premises and web-based solutions. This course will give you the confidence to select the right actions and workflow logic for your business workflows. \nAudience\nThe intended audience for this course would be those who have been using Office 365 for some time and are now looking at optimizing their existing business processes and designing new ones. \nPrerequisites\nDelegates should have some exposure to Microsoft Windows operating system and Microsoft Office 365. \nCourse Objectives\n\nAn Introduction to Microsoft Power Automate\nGetting Started with Workflows\nFlow Logic\nIntegration\nThe Mobile App\nAdministration and Maintenance\n\nModule 1:\nAn Introduction to Microsoft Power Automate   \nLet’s get started with an introduction to Microsoft Power Automate. Historically\, automating business processes typically landed in the lap of a developer in the business\, who has a good understanding of coding and the systems that they were connecting. However\, more systems deployed to businesses are encouraging a bigger focus on end user design and management. With this culture change\, end users are looking to further improve their business solutions. Power Automate brings workflow design to all audiences. It offers the building blocks for lightweight or business-critical processes. \nIn this module\, we cover an overview of the product and its application to Office 365 and third-party services. \nTopics Covered  \n\nWhat is Microsoft Power Automate?\nThe benefits of automation\nHow to get to Power Automate\n\nModule 2:\nGetting started with Power Automate   \nWe begin our discovery of Microsoft Power Automate by building our first business process. We will discuss how to use templates to get started with Power Automate or how to use a blank template to start with no defined actions. Once in the product\, we will give you a tour of the editor\, workflow management page and the home screen to help you navigate around the product. \nNext\, we will start to add\, edit\, and remove actions from our workflow template in order to customize the Power Automate for a specific business need. Once ready we will publish and trigger the workflow to test that it works as expected. We will finish this module by discussing how to turn a flow on or off as well as deleting a flow. \nTopics Covered  \n\nUsing Power Automate templates\nNavigating in Power Automate\nEditing a flow • Publish and trigger a flow\nTurn off or delete a flow\n\nModule 3:\nPower Automate logic   \nDecision making during a business process is often a bottleneck. Waiting for decisions or information to steer the workflow towards its goal is dependent on how long the involved party spends on the task. This could be mitigated if the desired information is found declared elsewhere for example\, as a document property or a form entry to name a few examples. Logic in a workflow allows existing information to push the workflow down multiple paths. This often speeds up workflow duration and minimizes human input. \nIn this module\, we will look at the core logic found in Power Automate and a practical application of each option. \nTopics Covered  \n\nAdding conditions\nDesigning switches\nUsing apply to each\nConfiguring “do until” logic\nAdding a scope\n\nModule 4:\nIntegration  \nBusinesses will often use a selection of productivity tools and services beyond Office 365. Marketing teams may use Facebook and Twitter whereas a sales team may use Salesforce to manage their customers. Power Automate provides connectors for popular services allowing your processes to extend beyond Office 365 to other web services. Connections can even be made to on-premises servers\, allowing your business systems house at the office to take part in your processes. \nTopics Covered  \n\nStandard and premium connectors\nConnecting to web services\nUsing Power Automate with on-premises data\n\nModule 5:\nThe Mobile App   \nPower Automate has a corresponding mobile app that can be used to leverage many features of Power Automate. Firstly\, it offers users the capability to build new flows\, directly from their phone or tablet. Secondly\, it can be used to manage existing flows including editing\, viewing history\, saving a copy\, disabling\, and deleting flows. You can access any approvals that have been sent to you by Power Automate and approve or reject decisions. The app also supports the push notifications that can be sent to your phone or tablet from a flow. Additionally\, you can even create buttons that appear in the app which allow you to trigger flows. This valuable app will be detailed in this module. \nTopics Covered  \n\nDownloading the mobile app\nSigning in and account management\nBuilding and managing flows\nCreating buttons\nFeeds and approvals\n\nModule 6:\nAdministration and Maintenance   \nIn our last module for Microsoft Power Automate\, we will be looking at how a business can manage their flows once they have a good uptake of the product. We will begin by discussing managing individual flows. This could be using history to discover the source of any issues and implement error handling as well as using the analytics to discover usage trends. We will discover how to share a flow which is ideal for sharing the maintenance of a flow with another colleague and how to import and export flows. Finally\, we will discuss how Office 365 administrators can shape the Power Automate experience with high-level settings that help ensure data segregation and security. \nTopics Covered  \n\nMaintaining a flow\nView history and analytics\nSharing a flow\nExport and import flows\nOffice 365 administration for Power Automate\nEnvironments\nData policies\nData integration
