Hello All,

I can't seem to get my cloud flow to connect to my power desktop flow. I've tested my desktop flow by itself and it appears to work but trying to get it to trigger from my cloud is having issues. Below is the error message I get.

Action 'Run_a_flow_built_with_Power_Automate_for_desktop' failed: Problem while executing action 'ConnectToServerWithAuthentication'. Unspecified error Microsoft.PowerPlatform.PowerAutomate.Desktop.Actions.SDK.ActionException: Unspecified error at Microsoft.Flow.RPA.Desktop.Modules.ActiveDirectory.Actions.ConnectToServerAction.Execute(ActionContext context) at Microsoft.Flow.RPA.Desktop.Robin.Engine.Execution.ActionRunner.Run(IActionStatement statement, Dictionary`2 inputArguments, Dictionary`2 outputArguments)

This is how my flow currently looks like.

For the connection, I'm using the same credentials I used to log into the PC and into Power Automate Desktop.

What Power Apps/Power Automate license do you have? Have you verified that your desktop machine is in the registered machines list in Power Automate (Cloud)?

@Pstork1 I have the Power Automate Pro License and yes, my machine is registered. That also led me to find the screenshot below.

So it looks like it is able to reach the desktop flow but fails to run the script. But when tested on it's own on PAD, the script worked.

In the step where it fails what does View Details say? And since you are running it in Attended mode are you logged in to the computer that its running on at the time the cloud flow executes?
