How does one get the Run URL to schedule a desktop flow

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 133

Hi there

 

I originally posted this in the wrong forum, I think, but I think it works here.

 

I have created a flow, and need to schedule it on Windows Task Scheduler to run every 2-3 minutes.

Watching one of Anders Jensen' videos shows that I should have a properties option when clicking on More Actions

BUT, I only appear to have

Which means I can't get to the Details and retrieve the Run URL for my flow.

Am I missing something?

If anyone is able to point me in the right direction I will be greatly appreciative.

Thank you kindly.

Craig

    Do you have a Premium license of Power Automate?

    Scheduling desktop flows (whether via the Windows Task Scheduler or a cloud flow) requires a Premium license. If you're doing this on a free version of PAD, it won't work.

    Hi Agnius

     

    I believe I do... Well I know I have a Premium for Cloud. Where would I check for the desktop power automate license?

     

    Thanks for the prompt response.

    Hi again, 

    This is what pops up under My Licenses

    So I believe that I do have the license.

    Is there anything else I'm missing?

     

    Thanks in advance guys.

    This seems to be okay. Are you sure you are signed in to PAD with the same account though?

    Which version of PAD are you on?

    This is the version that I'm running.

    That is significantly outdated and will not support launching the flow via the URL. You should update it to a (much) more recent version in order for this to work. The latest available now is 2.37 (27 months ahead of yours).

    Wow... My company installed it for me... Let me check that out, and I'll advise.

     

    Thanks Agnius

    Hi Agnius, 

     

    Thank you... such a simple solution right making sure you on the version.

    I am now successfully able to get the run URL for my flow.

     

    Have a great day all.
