Edit Cloud Flows with PAD

[DiverChristophe]

Is it possible to edit Cloud Flows using Power Automate Desktop? I purchased the $15/month subscription, but still cannot see my cloud flows in PAD.

Hi @DiverChristophe ,

The desktop designer is for desktop flows or RPA.

To develop cloud flows, go  to flow.microsoft.com to access the web designer

Should look like the below

It is possible to call API requests to Power Automate and edit cloud flows via PAD, but there is no direct integration to that.

Also, if you want to use Desktop flows with Cloud flows, you actually need a "Power Automate per user plan with Attended RPA" which comes at a cost of around 40 USD/month. PAD is only free for Windows 10/11 as long as you don't wish to use it with Cloud.

The 15 USD/month subscription will only allow you to use Cloud flows, but will not enable any communication between Cloud flows and PAD, if you are using the free version of PAD.
