We are announcing the ability to enable endpoint filtering for secure UI automation in Power Automate. This feature enables you to specify which applications and websites your automation scripts can interact with, ensuring precise and enhanced security. This feature will reach general availability on June 17, 2025.
How does this affect me?
Endpoint filtering in Power Automate desktop offers an added layer of control and security for your automation tasks. As an admin, apply endpoint filtering using the existing Data Loss Prevention (DLP) feature in Power Automate. Create an allow list of applications and websites that your automation scripts can interact with, or a deny list of those that should be restricted.
This feature targets UI and Browser automation actions, ensuring that your automation adheres to your organization’s policies. Endpoint filtering is checked the same way DLP policies are currently verified in Power Automate for desktop. Leverage endpoint filtering to tightly manage which endpoints are accessible, enhancing the precision and security of your automation workflows.

The recent announcement about enabling endpoint filtering for secure UI automation in Power Automate is a game changer for both admins and users alike. With this new feature set to roll out on June 17, 2025, we can expect a significant boost in security and control over automation tasks.
For admins, this means wielding more power than ever before in managing automation processes. By utilizing the existing Data Loss Prevention (DLP) features, admins can create tailored allow and deny lists for applications and websites. This ensures that automation scripts only interact with approved endpoints, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and enhancing compliance with organizational policies. It’s like having a bouncer at the club—only the right guests get in!
On the user side, while the changes might seem a bit restrictive at first, they ultimately lead to a more secure and reliable automation experience. Users can confidently run their scripts knowing that they are protected from unintended interactions with unapproved applications or websites. It’s all about keeping the automation party safe!
The impact of these changes is likely to be profound, fostering a culture of security while maintaining the flexibility that users crave. As businesses increasingly rely on automated workflows, the importance of secure automation cannot be overstated. This feature will not only enhance security but also build trust between users and IT departments.
