Hi,

I am new to this and am having problems with finding the Power Automate Desktop application to use on a Mac with a Mac OS. I have Microsoft apps on my Mac (Word, PPT, Outlook, etc) that I'd like to automate with. Is there not a desktop option of Power Automate for this? Thank you so much!!

I have the same question (13)

Hello @Bisou and @atrevino !
Currently, Power Automate Desktop can be used in a machine that runs Windows 10 Home, Windows 10 Pro, Windows 10 Enterprise, Windows Server 2016, or Windows Server 2019.
More information on the prerequisites for Power Automate Desktop can be found at: Power Automate Desktop prerequisites & limitations - Power Automate | Microsoft Docs

Good Morning,
I have the same question as @Anonymous
Currently I am searching for the right RPA tool, but as in our company (>4.000 employees) there are Windows but also MAC users I am not sure if MS Power Automate is able to meet our requirements.
So please @NikosMoutzou let me know if there are any plans to make the Power Automate Desktop application available to use on a Mac?
Thanks very much!

Mac users pay for Office 365 like everyone else, the option to Install the Desktop version of Power Automator is presented, we can download the .exe, but when we attempt to run the .exe to install, error window appears: "Safari can’t open the file “Setup.Microsoft.PowerAutomate.exe” because no available application can open it." This should NOT require Windows in Bootcamp to install. #ShameOnYou Microsoft should do the needful to make this available for Mac, especially since all the options to install are presented as if it is available.

Do not expect Power Automate Desktop to become (properly) available for MacOS, ever.

macOS has had an application called "Automater" where you can build RPA workflows. This application has been available for years.

If you download Parellels on a Mac, you could more than likely download the desktop executable since you're running Windows in Parallels.
