power automate data store

We can save data in UiPath Orchestrator and then utilize it in UiPath Studio. I'm looking to achieve something similar with the Power Automate desktop. Is there a method to do this?

    The Power Automate "orchestrator" kind of a feature is the cloud portal with solutions, and cloud flows. In there, you can store data in Dataverse tables or environment variables. You could also just put them into a SharePoint list or something, but then it would in fact be accessible from outside of PA, whereas environment variables in solutions is more of a PA-native thing. 

     

    These cannot be directly retrieved by a desktop flow, however, and you would need to have a cloud flow initialize a desktop flow and pass them as input variables to the desktop flow. See here for reference on input variables: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/desktop-flows/manage-variables#input-and-output-variables

    @Nived_Nambiar has already shared the resource on environment variables.
