Part 2: Capture and Monitor Critical Power Automate Workflows History through Child Flow
- This article is about process of integrating the child flow with the parent workflow in Power Automate to track the history of executions.
- Start by adding start time, end time and workflow status variable to manage flow and then organize parent flow actions within Scope Block.
- Create 3 parallel branches for error handling and workflow control to handle the flow execution for approvals and other tasks.
- Add a new Scope block next to the dummy flag compose action to capture and track flow history.
- Add the Run a Child Flow Action inside the Scope to ensure that the parent flow properly runs and tracks the results of the child flow.
- Map the Workflow History Block for tracking purposes.
- To use the child flow in a different environment, export the entire solution as a .zip file, upload to another environment and configure the connections.
- By following these steps, you’ve created a Flow in Power Automate that tracks the history of its execution, incorporates child flows, and manages error handling.
- This setup provides transparency and ensures that all flow statuses are logged into your SharePoint or Dataverse, whether they succeed or fail.
- With this setup, you can proactively monitor your critical workflows and quickly respond when issues arise, increasing responsiveness and enhancing system reliability.
