Comments when building flows?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 8

I am a big fan of documentation and properly commenting code.  I am new to Power Automate and was surprised that in the user interface, there isn't a space to the right of each step to document comments.  Is there a place in PowerAutomate to insert comments that are easily accessible so that as I create and share flows, I can provide the additional information on the flows that I think will be useful for others to get the most out of them?  Thank you in advance.

    @Carrida  you can add comments to individual actions by clicking on the 3 dots at the top right of the action and selecting "Add a comment". Other than that there is no way to add comments.

    Thanks Rob.  That was useful and I marked it as a solution.  I do still think it would be a great UI feature if I could choose to have those comments exposed on the right side of the flow, even when the rest of the step is collapsed, but having the comments, that you pointed out, does solve my base need.  Thanks again.
