Correct Answers: B and D
Power Automate provides five types of flows: Automated — this cloud flow type is triggered by an event, like when an email comes from your manager
Instant — this cloud flow type is triggered manually, like when you push a button
Scheduled — this cloud flow type is triggered on a schedule, like sending a report on every working day at 8 am.
Desktop — this flow type automates processes for your desktop and web applications
Business process flow — this flow type guides users step-by-step through the business process.
Option B is correct because every automated flow must have a trigger event that would start the actions, like the arrival of an email with an attachment to save an attachment to OneDrive. The trigger is the arrival of the email, and the action is the saving of the attachments. When an email comes and matches the condition — must have an attachment, this flow runs.
Option D is correct because the Desktop flow automates the processes on legacy, modern desktop, and web applications. You can create a Desktop flow using Power Automate Desktop or using alternative solutions involving Windows recorder and Selenium IDE. A Desktop flow can automate modern web applications. It interacts with the application using its elements, images, and coordinates.
Option A is incorrect because when you click on a Button flow in your mobile app, you start not an automated but an instant flow. An Instant flow automates the repetitive tasks that you can run just by pushing a button. It could be a button created by software or a real physical button, like a Flic button, that you can program and push. Instant flow also has the second name: the button flow. It is frequently represented by the hand clicking the button icon.
Option C is incorrect because you can start a Scheduled flow every working day at 8 am, but not an instant flow. The Scheduled Flow performs tasks on schedule, like once a day, on a specified date, or after a number of days.
Option E is incorrect because a Business process flow is the best flow type for onboarding and training the new employees, not an Instant flow. The Business process flow provides step-by-step guidance through the business processes.
