Exercise: Build a basic Power Automate flow

In the following exercise, you create an instant flow that is used to send you a reminder in 1 minute.

Task 1 – Create the Flow

In a browser window, navigate to https://make.powerautomate.com.
Using the navigation on the left, select +Create.
In the Start from template screen, enter the text "button", into the search all templates field and press Enter.
Locate and select the Send myself a reminder in 10 minutes flow. If prompted, select Create Flow.
On the Flow details screen, select the Edit button.
From the menu that appears, select Edit with designer.
In the name field, enter the text: remind me in 1 minute.
Select the Next button.
In the Delay step, change the Count field to 1 minute.
In the Send a push notification step, enter the following text into the Text field: Here is your 1-minute reminder “Your First name”.
Select the Save button.

In this next task, we use the Power Automate mobile application to trigger the reminder.

If you don't already have the Power Automate mobile application installed on your device, download the app from your device’s app store.
Once downloaded, sign into the mobile application using your credentials.
Select the Account Icon at the bottom of the app.
In the Environment section, switch to the environment you created the flow button in.
Select OK.
Once everything loads, select the Button Icon at the bottom of your app.
Select the Remind me in 1 minute button.
After 1 minute, you receive a push notification on your mobile device.
