What is Office 365 Flow?
Microsoft Flow is a cloud-based service that makes it practical and simple for line-of-business users to build workflows that automate time-consuming business tasks and processes across applications and services.
Who is the intended audience for Microsoft Flow?
Microsoft Flow has two distinct audiences:
- Line-of-business “Citizen Integrators” in enterprise organizations who partner with IT to move responsibility for business solutions closer to the business itself.
- IT decision makers who want to empower line of business partners to create their own solutions so IT professionals and integration specialists can focus their expertise on more advanced integration tools, such as Azure Logic Apps.
Flow is available in the Office 365 applications menu that is presented when you login to the PennO365 portal.
Flow offers a wide variety of templates to kick-start the creation of your first automated workflow.
