Have you checked the below locations?

C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Power Automate Desktop\Console\
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Power Automate Desktop\Designer\Data

They're there. Just tested and it's in

C:\Users\{User}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Power Automate Desktop\Console\Scripts\{FlowId}\Runs\{RunId}

But they get cleared after the flow ends, as the logs are then pushed to the cloud. So, you can only capture them during runtime.

I am new to power automate.

Hey @AnkurB1
To prevent the log files from being deleted, you can create a secondary flow or an additional step within your main flow to copy the log files to a different directory before the flow completes.

You can navigate "https://make.powerapps.com/environments" URL and select "Dataverse table" where you can see desktop flows in client data tab.

I tried reading the logs at run time but files get deleted once execution ends. I am creating a custom dashboard where I need the logs running /pass /fail but because now files gets delete.. I am not able to capture final status.

Also not able to get at what location it gets store over cloud or is there any way to update any config file to make them store locally.

If you have premium license, then you can refer those logs in power automate cloud portal itself under "Desktop flow runs" tab. Please refer the screenshot.
