Error Mixology: Crafting Resilient Cloud Flows with Power Automate

Thursday | 30th Jan | 11:00 CET

Agnius Bartninkas, MVP

Join me for a spirited session on mastering error handling in Microsoft Power Automate cloud flows! Discover how to shake off errors and stir up robust solutions. Dive into advanced features, concocting reliable flows with flair. 

We’ll garnish your knowledge with tips on efficient monitoring and troubleshooting. Sip on insights about crafting error notifications that pack a punch, and learn to log data for a smooth finish. Leave with a recipe for success, equipped to craft resilient flows that leave errors on the rocks. Cheers to enhancing your Power Automate game! 🍹

 

As adoption of the Power Platform grows, so does the need to make sure that the solutions built with it are stable and reliable. While Power Automate offers a spectrum of features for error handling, it does not actually have any kind of a generally accepted framework for doing it. It is also very frequently used by citizen developers and non-IT makers who are not necessarily familiar with the concept of handling errors. As such, many developers remain unfamiliar with how to effectively build robust flows (or even that they should do it at all). This session addresses this need, equipping you with essential techniques to enhance the robustness of your cloud flows.

 

In this hands-on session we’ll demonstrate how to:

– Use and implement advanced error handling features of Power Automate Cloud Flows.

– Implement best practices for handling errors and generating proper (and actually useful) error notifications to users.

– Log relevant information for monitoring and analysis.

– Build a standardized flow structure that can be reused for each flow.

  1. Benefits of attending the webinar – 

TAKEAWAYS:

After this session, you will have gained valuable insights into advanced error-handling features specific to Power Automate Cloud Flows. You will be able to build resilient cloud flows with proper logging, error notifications, as well as create a framework that can be re-used for future cloud-based solutions. You will also become familiar with the best practices of making your Power Automate Cloud Flows reliable and efficient.

This condensed session is your express ticket to fortifying your cloud flows with enhanced error-handling prowess. Uncover practical techniques and quick wins to elevate your Power Automate game.

  1. Is there a demo?  Yes. There will be a single demo, covering several different approaches to adding error handling, logging and reporting functionalities into Power Automate cloud flows.
