To create a workflow or flow that reoccurs daily, you can use Microsoft Power Automate
(formerly known as Microsoft Flow). Power Automate provides the capability to automate
repetitive tasks and processes on a schedule. Here's how you can create a flow that runs daily:
1. Log in to Power Automate:
Go to the Power Automate portal (https://flow.microsoft.com/) and sign in with
your Microsoft account or work/school account.
2. Create a New Flow:
Click on "Create" in the Power Automate portal to start creating a new flow.
3. Select a Trigger:
Choose a trigger that initiates the flow on a daily basis. For daily recurrence, a
commonly used trigger is "Recurrence."
Search for "Recurrence" in the trigger search box and select it.
4. Configure Recurrence Trigger:
Configure the recurrence schedule by specifying the frequency (daily), the interval
(every day), and the time of day when you want the flow to start.
5. Add Actions:
After configuring the recurrence trigger, you can add one or more actions that
the flow will perform when it runs daily. These actions can include tasks such as
sending emails, updating data in a database, creating files, or interacting with
other apps and services.
6. Configure Action Details:
Configure the details of each action you add to the flow. For example, if you're
sending an email, specify the recipient, subject, and body of the email.
7. Save and Test:
Save the flow and give it a meaningful name.
You can also test the flow to ensure that it's working as expected.
8. Activate the Flow:
Once you're satisfied with the flow and it's tested successfully, you can activate it.
9. Monitoring and Management:
After activation, the flow will run daily at the specified time. You can monitor its
execution and review any run history or logs to ensure it's running smoothly.
By following these steps, you can create a flow in Power Automate that reoccurs daily and
automates tasks or processes based on your requirements. Power Automate provides a wide
range of connectors and actions, making it a versatile tool for automation and workflow
management.
