Is documentation available for Power Automate Desktop actions?

Posted on by drake 139

In the Power Automate Desktop action help popups, there are links to the technical documentation (inputs, outputs) but I was wondering if documentation is available that could be shared with non-technical users.  The old WinAutomation documentation provided examples, screenshots, etc. for each action in its documentation (the manuals).
