Hello,
Target: An analytical tool store PDF files (daily reports every day) at a network drive. But we want to relocate these files into MS Teams into a channel and a file storage.
We already build the connection from teams into One Drive and i have already build a Desktop Flow which easily relocate a fille from a networkderive to a One drive teams connection.
But i dont want to click start the flow every time when it has to start.
I know that there is a premium contract which allows to connect the web application with the desktop application.
First questions, which license do I need for this? Is the 12,60 enough ?
Or is there a different way to start the desktop flow automatically, without clicking on the Play button.
You will need at least the "Pro-Benutzer-Plan mit beaufsichtigter RPA" for "€33,70 pro Benutzer/Monat" to be able to use Power Automate cloud flow for scheduling and desktop flows for executing the copy action. But, then it is still attended automation, which means, it has to run on one of your/colleagues PC while he/she is present and the desktop is unlocked.
To run the flow unattended in the background on a server or VM without any human interaction/oversight/presence, then you still need the "Add-on für unbeaufsichtigte RPA" for "€126,50 pro Bot/Monat".
If this is just a simple copy action, then there might be cheaper alternatives like a PowerShell script or a file sync/transfer tool which supports file system monitoring.
