Power Automate Is Awful

Reasons why Microsoft Power Automate sucks and Microsoft should feel bad

My Issues with Low Code

Specifically the Microsoft™ Power Platform™ Power automate is a useful tool. It lets you connect almost anything in the Microsoft ecosystem (and even outside the Microsoft ecosystem if you pay for premium). Unfortunately it is not a good tool. If Janice from Accounting wants to have an email appear when there’s a new SharePoint item with their name on it, sure. That’s possible. And fairly simple. Power Automate is quite good at this.
