Egnyte's Microsoft Power Automate Integration

Overview

Power Automate (Formerly known as Microsoft Flow), is a cloud-based software that allows users to create and automate workflows and tasks across over 220 applications and services without help from developers. Automated workflows are called flows. To create a flow, the user specifies what action should take place when a specific event occurs.  Once a flow is built, it can be managed on the desktop or through an app on a mobile device.  With Egnyte, users can create workflows with files stored in Egnyte when they are copied, created, deleted, or moved allowing do automate these processes.
