We are announcing the ability to use your own encryption key for encrypting data at-rest for existing environments with flows in Power Automate. This will enable you to meet your data and privacy policy guidelines. This feature will reach general availability on November 15, 2024.
How does this affect me?
You will be able to use your own encryption key from your Azure Key Vault to encrypt an environment that already has running Power Automate flows. Previously, only environments without prior Power Automate usage were supported for customer-managed encryption keys.
What do I need to do to prepare?
This message is for awareness. No action is required.
