In total, Microsoft Flow now supports 72 different services, including the company's own built-in actions. Also, Power BI now connects directly into Microsoft Flow whenever there is a data alert. This allows users to turn Power BI insights into action. Data alerts are a recently released Power BI feature, which allows notifications whenever a tile on user's dashboard meets particular criteria. In addition, you can create flows from the beginning that use Power BI or use the existing templates.

Constantly improving

The company is rather busy with updating the Microsoft Flow. The platform was recently brought out of preview and is one of the Microsoft's most anticipated platforms. It was first introduced in April. Microsoft Flow helps create automated workflows between your favorite apps and services to get notifications, synchronize files, collect data, and more. It focuses more on the enterprise rather than the consumer-focused IFTTT. The mobile version of the app for iPhone and Android is also receiving ongoing updates. Microsoft recently added the ability to create new flows from blank, in addition to the already existing experience of creation from templates. The company also improved performance when viewing flow runs.
