Processing a form with Power Automate
In this exercise, we’ll configure a flow to process the responses and save them into the database you created in Chapter 13, Using Databases. The flow will utilize the form ID value you saved in the previous exercise, the When a new response is submitted trigger, and the Get response details action for the Microsoft Forms connector.
Follow these steps to configure the flow:
- Log in to the Power Automate web portal (https://make.powerautomate.com) and click Create.
