A finance manager wants a cloud flow that pauses and waits for a designated director to either accept or reject each submitted expense request before the flow continues to record the expense. Which Power Automate capability should be used to achieve this?
The legal team stores contract files in a SharePoint document library. Whenever a new contract file is uploaded, a manager must review and formally approve or reject it, and the person who uploaded it should be notified of the decision by email. Which Power Automate approach best fits this requirement?
A procurement team uses a cloud flow that sends purchase requests over $5,000 to a manager using the Approvals connector's 'Start and wait for an approval' action. After the manager responds, the flow must send a confirmation email if the request is approved and a rejection notice if it is denied. Which element should the flow use immediately after the approval action to handle these two different responses?
A facilities team maintains a SharePoint list of maintenance requests. They want a cloud flow to run automatically every time someone adds a new item to the list, without any person clicking a button or waiting for a schedule. Which type of trigger should the flow use?
A company has several cloud flows that each need to perform the same set of steps to look up an employee's manager and format a notification message. The automation team wants to build this logic once and call it from multiple flows so they only maintain it in a single place. Which Power Automate capability should they use?
An accounts payable team wants a cloud flow that runs when a new invoice is added to a SharePoint list. If the invoice amount is greater than 5,000, the flow should send the invoice to a manager for approval; otherwise, it should mark the item as auto-approved without any human review. Which flow component allows the flow to take one of two different paths based on the invoice amount?
A project coordinator wants an automated cloud flow that runs whenever a new item is added to a SharePoint list, and then posts a message in a specific Microsoft Teams channel to notify the team. Which combination of a connector trigger and a connector action should the coordinator use to build this flow?
You are building a cloud flow that should start automatically whenever a new item is added to a SharePoint list, and then post a message in a Microsoft Teams channel. When configuring the flow, which component must you use to detect that a new SharePoint item has been created?
A marketing coordinator wants an automation that runs whenever a new file is added to a specific OneDrive for Business folder. The automation should copy that file into a team SharePoint document library so colleagues can access it. Which combination of Power Automate elements should be used to build this cloud flow?
A logistics coordinator wants to build a cloud flow that, when a new email arrives in a shared mailbox, sends a Teams message to the dispatch team AND saves a copy of the email body to a SharePoint list — with both actions running at the same time rather than one after the other. Which flow capability lets both actions execute simultaneously after the trigger?
A sales manager wants to be able to tap a button in the Power Automate mobile app to instantly send a reminder email to their team whenever they finish a client meeting. The email should go out only when they choose to trigger it, not on a schedule or in response to another system event. Which type of trigger should the flow use?
An accounts payable clerk receives dozens of invoice emails each day in Outlook. She wants to automatically save every attachment from incoming emails to a specific SharePoint document library the moment each email arrives, without any manual steps. Which type of Power Automate flow and trigger should she use?
A sales manager wants an automation that runs only when she personally flags an email in her Outlook inbox for follow-up. When she flags a message, the automation should send her a push notification on her Power Automate mobile app reminding her to respond. Which type of trigger should be used to start this cloud flow?
A field technician wants to log completed maintenance jobs while on-site. They need to tap a button in the Power Automate mobile app, take a photo, and have the details saved to a SharePoint list without waiting for any automatic event. Which type of flow trigger should be used?
A facilities manager wants a flow to run automatically every weekday at 8:00 AM to query a SharePoint list for open maintenance requests and email a summary to the team. No user interaction should be required to start the flow. Which type of trigger should the flow use?
A finance manager wants a cloud flow to automatically run every weekday at 7:00 AM to compile and email a summary of the previous day's transactions. No user action or incoming event should start the flow. Which type of trigger should be used?
You built a cloud flow that notifies your team when a new lead is added to a SharePoint list. You are going on extended leave and want two teammates to be able to edit the flow, view its run history, and update the connections if they break while you are away. What should you do?
A support team monitors a shared mailbox in Outlook. Whenever a new email arrives in that shared mailbox, they want a cloud flow to automatically log the message details into a SharePoint list. Which trigger should the flow use?
A facilities team stores maintenance requests in a SharePoint list. Whenever a request is closed, the team wants a summary email automatically sent to the person who originally submitted it, with no manual steps and no software installed on anyone's PC. Which type of Power Automate flow should you build?
A facilities team maintains a SharePoint list of building maintenance tickets. They want a cloud flow to run automatically only when the status of an existing ticket is changed, so a follow-up notification can be sent. Which trigger type should the flow use?
