Business value

Building Power Automate flows that are easily portable and work with multiple companies helps partners and consultants use Power Platform when adapting Business Central to the needs of small and medium-sized businesses.

Feature details

This feature provides the following capabilities to Power Automate makers as they create or edit flows:

  • Access to a list of API categories and APIs/tables in all actions—without even specifying a company.
  • Edit the corresponding flow steps with all metadata details even though no company was provided.
  • Use of Dataverse environment variables for environments and companies.
  • Support for application lifecycle management (ALM) with Dataverse environment variables in AL-Go for GitHub.
  • Use a standard variable for company ID and make flows that can run in the context of different companies.
  • Use the output of the new List Companies action to perform actions or read data across companies.
