Feature details

There are situations where solutions require a bot to trigger a back-end workflow or business process, for example, when a user asks a question about upcoming deals to be sent to an email address.

Power Virtual Agents integrates with Power Automate and can trigger existing flows or create new ones that call back-end systems without requiring code.

Power Automate has hundreds of connectors to common services that can be used to automate existing internal workflows. These connectors can then be called directly from dialogs authored in the Power Virtual Agents.

Custom code and connections to legacy systems can also be supported through custom connectors, providing opportunities to extend the Power Virtual Agents as your business needs change and grow.
