Power automate does not work in a VM when minimized

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello everyone, i hope everyone is doing fine. 

 

I've been working in a project with my company and we want to work with automations to update all data in two power bi's visuals, for that, we are working with Virtual machines to do the updates, but we discovered some problems:

 

1 - the automation is not running as we minimize the VM.

2 - power automate agent for virtual desktops doesn't connect, so we are lost about it.

 

All the data for the visuals in power bi are in excel spreadsheets that we treat before updating the data, so that means that we are not working with servers and database for this. 

 

I'm open to any alternatives that you guys have.

 

Anything I can help i'll be glad to do it.

 

Have a good day
