Assessment Reasoning
This is a new feature in public preview allowing users to visualise and edit desktop flows in a flow chart view. No admin action is required, but admins and developers should be aware of the UI and editing options. User impact is moderate as desktop flow designers gain an alternative interface, improving usability for complex flows. Urgency is low since this is informational and optional.

📢 Official Microsoft Message Center Announcement


Power Automate – Visualize desktop flows with flow chart view
Message ID: MC1429626
We are announcing the ability to visualize desktop flows with flow chart view in Power Automate. This feature will be available in public preview on July 31, 2026.

How does this affect me?
Users will be able to switch between the existing linear action list and a visual flow chart view while editing desktop flows. The flow chart view will display actions as connected nodes, making branching, dependencies, and execution paths easier to understand. Users will also be able to rearrange actions by dragging nodes and continue editing in either view, which will improve readability and troubleshooting for complex desktop flows.

What action do I need to take?
This message is for awareness, and no action is required.
