Posted on by 71

Hi,
I want to update to the lastest Power Automate Desktop version, and I want to be completely sure won't lose the flows developed.
- Is there way to do backup in preview version? (I don't have conexión with Power Automate, because I have no posible to install gateway)
Thanks in advance for any recomendation to be sure.

    When i update a latest version of PAD for safe side i'm already shared my flow with my colleague, but i did't lose my any workflow after updating a new version.

    If you are using a personal Microsoft account, then flows are stored within your OneDrive (Apps\Power Automate Desktop For Windows), which you can backup.

    Thanks @Tejashree_G ,

    Indeed, I tried on another computer ... and we only have to install the latest version, without uninstalling the previous one, to update. And no flow is lost.

    @fraenKThis is automatic or what should I do to get those flows stored in OneDrive?
    How I link my PAD (preview version) with my personal OneDrive?

    Thanks

    If you are using a personal Microsoft account then flows are automatically saved to OneDrive.
