Which Power Automate trigger would you use to start a flow when a new file is added to a SharePoint document library?
Answer: When a file is created (SharePoint trigger)
The SharePoint 'When a file is created' trigger fires automatically when a new document is added to a specified library or folder.
What is a 'scope' action in Power Automate used for?
Answer: Grouping a set of actions together, often used with 'run after' for error handling
A scope groups actions logically and enables structured error handling by running subsequent scopes only after a previous scope succeeds, fails, or times out.
In Power Automate, what does 'run after' configuration control?
Answer: Under which conditions (success, failure, timeout, skip) a subsequent action should execute
'Run after' lets you configure an action to execute only when the preceding action has a specific outcome — success, failure, skipped, or timed out.
Which license is required to use premium connectors in Power Automate?
Answer: Power Automate Premium (per-user or per-flow)
Premium connectors like SQL Server, Salesforce, or HTTP require a Power Automate Premium license beyond the standard Microsoft 365-included entitlements.
What is a child flow in Power Automate?
Answer: A reusable flow that can be called from other flows as a subflow
A child flow is a cloud flow that is invoked by another flow using the 'Run a Child Flow' action, enabling reuse of common logic across multiple parent flows.
How does Power Automate handle flow run history?
Answer: Each flow stores a log of recent runs showing status, inputs, and outputs for troubleshooting
Power Automate automatically records each flow run with its overall status and a detailed log of each action's inputs and outputs, retained for 28 days by default.
