How we run a desktop flow automatically or is there any way to connect cloud flow to desktop flow to make it an automated cloud flow

Power Automate Desktop

You need to have a Power Automate Premium license to have any kinds of triggers or schedules to your flow. When you have that, you can build a trigger/schedule in the cloud and make the cloud flow start the desktop flow.

Alternatively, you can also use the Windows Task Scheduler to schedule your flow, too. But to do that, you also need a Premium license.

This video describes both approaches: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CN_tPdAEkTc&ab_channel=AndersJensen

No automated flow runs are available under the free license of PAD.
