From PowerApps you will have to call a Power Automate Cloud Flow which will have an action to call a Desktop Flow

Re: How do you use Power Automate to create a desktop flow for an Power App?

I'm wondering - we had another thread where someone was trying to automate using a Power App, and finding that PAD cannot see the interface elements inside the application. I'm wondering if BreauxN1 is hitting the same issue?
