The Chrome/Edge extension enables editing a Power Automate flow definition as JSON.

Motivation

The reason behind creating this extension is constantly struggling with repetitive tasks in the flow authoring workflow like replacing a SharePoint site's URL or changing the variable name.

Features

  • Edit a Power Automate flow as JSON in your browser.
  • Workflow definition JSON schema validation.
  • Rich text manipulation features thanks to Monaco Editor (VS Code).
  • Validating actions using "Flow Checker".
  • More features may come in the future :)

Getting started

  1. Get the extension from the Chrome extensions store or Edge Add-ons
  2. Open the flow edit page in the Power Automate portal.
  3. Click the extension icon.
  4. Edit your flow!
