    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    You'll have to do this once per device:

    • Connection name: Choose a name for the device to Flow connection. It can be different than the gateway name.

    • Username: Provide your device’s work or school account. (Domain\Username)

    • Password: Your work or school account’s password.

    • Gateway: Select the gateway that you created during the installation. (If you do not install a gateway in your system, you can head to there download and install it)

    For more information about how to run UI Flow from other Flows, you can refer to this document:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/ui-flows/run-ui-flow

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    That means that this feature is not yet available for your environment. You can try this out by creating a new environment, or, wait until the feature is rolled out everywhere, which will be a few weeks.

     

    The public preview of attended automation will be enabled for all new environments by the end of the week and enabled for all existing environments before the end of November.

    Hi,

    I was not able use the UI flow gate way because of our internal IT issues. I therefore used "Power BI - On-premises data gateway (personal mode)" and it could be selected used for UI flows as well. 

     

    You can download the gateway here - https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/gateway/ and select personal mode during installation.

    Let me know if it works for you.

    Best,
    Abhi
