Available in Microsoft365

00:00:04

you will learn how to create a power automate flow using the copilot A I tool.

00:00:09

Now available in the environment

00:00:11

to start, you can either enter a prompt directly from the home page

00:00:15

or use the create menu to access the copilot environment.

00:00:20

Imagine you want to be notified by a team's message

00:00:23

whenever a file is added to one of your teams.

00:00:27

Once your prompt is written and validated,

00:00:29

copilot will suggest several flow options based on

00:00:32

your request and its level of understanding.

00:00:36

Click next.

00:00:37

Before entering the flow construction space power automate will

00:00:41

inform you that sharepoint and teams will be connected.

00:00:45

Click create flow to access the construction area.

00:00:50

In this space. You will find two blocks available.

00:00:53

The first related to the generation of the file in teams and

00:00:57

sharepoint and the second managing the notification by message in teams.

00:01:02

Open the copilot panel to adjust or complete your

00:01:05

flow by entering your requests in the prompt.

00:01:08

Each block is fully customisable manually.

00:01:11

As in standard flows,

00:01:12

you can also use copilot requests to modify your flow

00:01:15

elements by entering your instructions in the right hand panel,

00:01:20

start by specifying which SharePoint site or teams

00:01:23

group you want to monitor for file editions,

00:01:26

then select the name of the library or use the

00:01:29

copilot tool to describe your requirement by formulating your request.

00:01:35

The copilot panel will subsequently show which block has modified.

00:01:39

It is your responsibility to review,

00:01:42

manage or rectify any potential errors that might have been introduced,

00:01:47

manually navigate through the various folders to specify the

00:01:50

channel on which you want to monitor file editions.

00:01:54

While you can manually set up the team's message.

00:01:56

Let's use Copilot to explore its capabilities.

00:02:00

Let us start by specifying that the message should be posted as a flow bot

00:02:05

and indicate which channel to post in.

00:02:07

You will see that the steps applied in the

00:02:09

copilot pane are also reflected in the left pane

00:02:13

which contains the details of the various blocks of your power automate flow.

00:02:18

Ask Copilot to customize the body of the message.

00:02:22

If the actions generated by copilot do not suit

00:02:25

you be aware that each action can be undone.

00:02:29

Note that some actions such as adding the file name to the message

00:02:32

body are often easier to perform manually via the insertion of dynamic elements.

00:02:38

The icon with a lightning bolt rather than systematically using copilot,

00:02:42

which can generate errors.

00:02:45

Ask copilot to add the file path to the message body,

00:02:52

use A I to insert an action before or after other actions.

00:02:56

For example,

00:02:57

you can choose a mobile notification of file edition as the very last action

00:03:02

as before you can modify the notification block manually

00:03:05

or by entering your request in the copilot pane.

00:03:10

Once your flow is complete, save it and test it

00:03:16

to add a file to your channel's library.

00:03:18

And teams go to the target team and add the file,

00:03:23

then return to the power automate tab and

00:03:25

wait while the flow completes its processing.

00:03:28

This may take some time depending on the type of flow generated.

00:03:33

You now have a customized message sent by the flow bot

00:03:36

in teams containing both the file name and its storage location.

00:03:40

Note that the URL is not clickable

00:03:43

to make the URL clickable.

00:03:45

You will need to generate html code that

00:03:47

transforms this text string into a hyperlink.

00:03:50

We will cover this type of manipulation in other tutorials.

00:03:55

You can also see that on your mobile phone,

00:03:57

the notifications have been sent allowing you to

00:03:59

view the history of flow executions and failures.

00:04:04

To conclude this tutorial,

00:04:05

you can see that Copilot for power automate represents a significant advancement

00:04:10

particularly for assisting you in creating simple flows even if

00:04:14

you are not well versed in the power automate environment.

00:04:17

However,

00:04:18

it may sometimes be necessary to make adjustments which requires

00:04:21

a certain level of knowledge of the power automate environment.

00:04:25

This will be addressed in the upcoming tutorial videos of our course.
