Power Automate Desktop Flows - Parallel Runtime

I need to run the same desktop flow in parallel for two separate users in the same environment... how can we achieve this?

 

Example:  Desktop flow 'TestFlow' is packaged into a solution and the solution is imported by User A and User B in the sam environment.  'TestFlow' is an attended automation which is triggered by a MS Teams message.  If User A triggers the automation and 'TestFlow' begins processing items from the work queue.  How can we develop the solution to allow User B to trigger the automation and call the 'TestFlow' to work items from the same work queue concurently?

Hi  @jbreunig ,

 

According to your description, I think you first need to make sure that two users have run privileges for this dekstop flow and have machine run time from different computers connected to the accounts of these two users, and then you can consider trying to use the API call desktop flow run triggers either in the cloud flow or in the API call's code. The logic and parallel order of the run triggers can be written in your code:
