I would like my flow to check if the run mode is Attended or Unattended and to run the flow with this condition

I have a flow that is attended, but I would like to do this: 

 

If the flow is attended, then run this flow below:

but if the flow is unattended, then run the flow unattended.  How do I do this?  

Will it be a conditional flow, or should I check the run mode first and then run it?  

I don't know.  Please help.

    Hi @naeemahsmall 

     

    May be try with condition which checks the day of week, if it is weekend (sat or sun) > use run desktop flows in unattended mode, else in attended mode.

     

    see below

    Other way would be to run it in unattended irrespective of day.

    I have process flow that I am running.  I would like to run the process attended and also unattended.  

    I am programmer.  So I am thinking about using a condition like if the computer is attended than run the process, else run the process.  I am new to power automate. 

     

    Currently, my flow is attended.  So when I am on the computer,  the flow works, but on the weekends when I am not on the computer, the flow fails.  

     

    I hope this helps.

    Hi @naeemahsmall 

     

    bit confused , did you meant that you are running a flow and based on flow run > whether attended or unattended you need to run another flow with simmilar to that (unattended/attended) am i correct ?
