Hi, is there any way of capturing an end-2-end flow to import into a document for recording the flow for other developers? Thanks

    This isn't exactly what you want, but you can use Copilot in Power Automate to generate a detailed description of what the flow does.  It doesn't capture every action and configuration but its a great start for documentation.  Here's a screenshot below of a sample from one of my demos.

    Export your flow, then use AutoReview to "Select Export".
     
    Auto Code Review your Power Automate flows. Upload your legacy or solution exports (all data stored locally in your browser). The following exports are created:
     
    • Review - Code Review of flow, with score, errors and warnings
    • Report - All variables, actions and connections
    • Diagram - Visual representation of the flow
    • CSV Exports - Download variables, actions and connections into excel
    • Definition - Flow definition JSON file
    • Solution View - List contents of solution
    • Compare 2 Flows - Show changes between 2 flows
