Power Automate Trial Expiration

Hello everyone!

I am worried.

The company I work for has a regular Office 365 subscription and Power Automate is included, with standard features.

I accidentally activated the trial premium license (I still don't know how... 🙄 we think it was the "Schedule" Trigger I used in some flows).

I recently received the "Your Power automate Trial plan will expire in a few days" notification - note: Power Automate, not Power Apps. That was how I found out a Premium trial was even activated 😑

With help of IT dept, I found out that maybe the "Schedule" Trigger I used activated the trial.

I promptly modified the flows that use that trigger and chose a different, standard trigger. I completely deleted the flows that could not be modified.

My question is: when trial expires, will my Power Automate license return to standard 365 license my company subscribed?

Will my modified flows still work?

Please, reassure me 😁

Thank you in advance!

Re: Power Automate Trial Expiration

I'm curious what happens at the end of a trial period. I recently posted a question/problem, to which I've yet to get any replies, as when my recent 'Power Automate Plan 2 Trial' expired I could not find a way not to renew to get back to using Power Automate, i.e., I couldn't find a way around the 'renew for another 30 days' button and back to My 'my flows' or 'home' page. It seems I was forced to renew. I've double checked now and I don't have any premium connectors, I must have initially looked at one, never used in an active flow, and I'm not 'locked in'. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated on what I can do when it expires, or before then?

Normally if you use a premium feature you will get a popup like this:
If you click "Start trial" you can use this premium feature and the 90 days starts.

The scheduled trigger in my opinion is no premium feature, so it has to be something different. Every action has this special mark for a premium feature next to the name. It looks like this:

Thank you very much Matthy79! 😊

Do you happen to know if what activated the trial was actually the schedule trigger?
I am curious now... and a little bit worried.
I always carefully avoided using premium features, and this slipped my eyes 😥

Yes, you will be a “normal” user again and if there are no premium actions in your flow, they will work.
