Update: Release of this feature has been postponed, we will announce a new date in the future.
We are announcing the ability to assign custom names to actions in desktop flows in Power Automate for desktop.
How does this affect me?
This feature enables you to assign custom names to actions directly in the flow designer. When you add an action to the designer panel, you can rename the action to something meaningful and descriptive.
What action do I need to take?
This message is for awareness, and no action is required.
If you would like more information on this feature, please visit Assign custom names to actions in desktop flows.
