Flow Status Feedback in Power Automate Visual

Currently, the Power Automate visual in Power BI allows users to trigger flows directly from reports, which is a powerful integration. However, it lacks built-in feedback mechanisms to inform users whether the flow execution was successful or if it encountered an error.

 

Requested Enhancements:

  1. Flow Execution Status Display:

    • Show a visual indicator (e.g., success/failure icon or status text) within the Power BI report after a flow is triggered.
    • Optionally allow custom messages based on flow outcomes.
  2. Error Message Handling:

    • Capture and display error messages returned from Power Automate flows.
    • Provide a configurable option to show detailed error messages or user-friendly summaries.

Benefits:

  • Improves transparency and trust in automated actions.
  • Enhances troubleshooting and debugging capabilities.
  • Enables better user experience and operational reliability in business-critical reports.

Use Case Example: A user triggers a flow to update a record in Dataverse. If the flow fails due to a missing field or permission issue, the user currently receives no feedback. With this enhancement, the user would immediately see a failure message and could take corrective action.
