Microsoft Dataverse real-time workflows
Workflows automate business processes without a user interface. People usually use workflow processes to initiate automation that doesn’t require any user interaction.
There are two types of workflows:
- Background workflows. Background workflows run when the system has resource availability (asynchronously). Go to the Power Automate documentation for more details about background workflows.
- Real-time workflows. Real-time workflows run immediately (synchronously).
