Still need RPA-add on while having Power Automate premium license?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by DJanssen 427

Hello,

 

My company is currently getting a Power Automate Premium license for my account. In the meantime I have used the 90 days trial version of the premium capabilities. This morning I wanted to create a hosted agent to test out some RPA flows. I however receive the following notification:

Is this because I'm using the trial version? My account license right now says that the hosted RPA should be within the capabilities. I'm very confused. 

 

Thanks a lot!

    @DJanssen ,

     

    The Power Automate Premium doesn't give you access to hosted RPA capabilities. However, with the self assisted 90-day premium trial, you have the capacity to create 1 hosted machine.

     

    The message bar shows a warning you will need a hosted RPA add-on to use this feature, but it doesn't stop you from creating the hosted machine with a self assisted premium trial. Once your trial has ended, the hosted machine will become non compliant.
