Running Desktop Flow Unattended from Cloud Power Automate: Issue with Launching Desktop Application

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I have created a desktop flow as follows:

  1. Launch a specific desktop application and press a button (which generates a CSV file).
  2. Edit the CSV file and then move it.

When I run the flow while logged into my PC, it works fine. However, if I log out of the PC and run the desktop flow from the cloud-based Power Automate as unattended, only step 1 does not get executed.

Is there a way to execute step 1 successfully in an unattended manner?
