  • The report is connected to a database table containing section start times for a bike ride, with three measures calculating values for a new row of data.
  • The process involves selecting the Power Automate visual from the Insert ribbon tab in Power BI desktop, adding data, and creating the flow.

  • After completing the flow, it needs to be saved and applied in Power BI desktop, with permissions and licenses for flow execution determined by the user clicking the button.
  • Formatting options for the Power Automate button in the report include applying theme colors, adjusting padding and shadows, and modifying text.
  • Flow environments in Power Automate allow developers to select environments and organize flows in solutions, but in Power BI desktop, flows are automatically placed in the Default environment.
  • The article highlights a workaround for selecting environments in Power Automate flows created in Power BI desktop, provided by James Reeves in a LinkedIn post, although it is considered a hack and not part of standard functionality.
