The desktop flow checker in the Power Automate portal extends rule‑based static analysis to provide configurable notifications for violations detected across all desktop flows in an environment. Administrators can select the notification type (error, warning, or informational), adjust severity levels, and define parameters such as thresholds, recurrence, and scope. The checker uses the same rule engine that runs during initialization and analysis of flows, loading default and custom rules to evaluate quality, performance, and maintainability issues.
Business Value:
As an administrator, you need a clear way to track quality issues across the desktop flows in your environment. But today you only discover problems when they cause run failures or support escalations. With configurable notifications in the admin portal, you choose which rule violations trigger alerts and what parameters apply to each notification type. You stay ahead of quality risks, enforce governance standards across makers, and reduce the time you spend reacting to issues across environments.
