Additional cost and custom connectors

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2
Hi Everyone,

I am new to Power Automate and would like some clarification regarding potential additional costs while using Power Automate Desktop.

If I have a premium license and create an unattended bot that performs API calls, will there be any additional costs to run it in unattended mode?

I'm also a bit confused about the costs associated with custom connectors and unattended bots.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you for your help.

    Since you already have a premium Power Automate Premium license and are covering the cost of running the RPA bot unattended, there shouldn’t be any additional costs for using the Custom Connector or other premium connectors.

     

    The only potential additional expense you might encounter is the cost of the hosted virtual machine in Azure, provided you are not using Hosted RPA.

     

    This assumes you are:

    • Creating a single Power Automate Desktop flow,
    • Using one Power Automate cloud flow to orchestrate the desktop flow,
    • Working within a single environment.

    Can we run multiple bots at different times if they are hosted on the same machine?

    Yes, you can.
