During this public health crisis, my organization has transitioned to working from home. I created a flow in Power Automate for our local office to utilize for submission of a work request that is usually submitted on a paper form when we are working in the office.
I did this with my belief that there was a 90-day trial for Power Automate, and in the hopes that we would be back in the office by the end of that trial period. (Although, it has been working really well and my hope was to be able to extend this trial.) The flow basically emails the content of work requests submitted by users in Microsoft Forms to supervisors for approval, and the administrative assistant for completion.
It has only been about two weeks since we started using it, and I was surprised to have just received an email that I have 7 days before the trial period for Power Automate expires. A few questions:
1. Was I just incorrect about the 90-day trial period? I could've sworn that was what I had read.
2. Will the current flow I am using be deleted/stop functioning at the end of the trial? Or will I just be unable to create new flows?
3. Is there any other way to have information from Forms emailed to someone other than the person who created that Form?
I'm really disappointed that this method that has really streamlined our requests may end. I think there is a chance of extending it in the future, but with only having it in use for a couple of weeks, I don't have enough data to make a case for increased efficiency, improved tracking, etc.
