Hi @Nikhil_girish 

This is not directly possible using the available connectors in Power Automate. However you might want to give a try using the Ui Flows. You can record all the actions step by step and then make the flow repeat the actions. 

You might also want to try using Azure Automation Run Book and develop a PowerShell script for that. You can execute that from Power Automate using the Azure Automation connector. 

Hope this Helps!

Hi @Nikhil_girish 

Yes. That is a limitation. You can probably give a try with Azure Automation Runbooks in that case. 

Hope this Helps!
