What is a method for adding actions to your flow aside from recording?

Choosing the method of selecting the desired action and dragging it to the main canvas is a fundamental part of building flows in Microsoft Power Automate. This approach leverages the graphical user interface, allowing users to visually arrange their flows and see how actions and triggers interact. By dragging actions to the canvas, users can easily customize the flow, organize their steps logically, and ensure that each action is placed in the correct order for the intended process.

This method is particularly user-friendly for both new and experienced users, as it enables a more intuitive approach to flow creation compared to typing commands or queries. Additionally, this dragging action facilitates instant feedback, as users can immediately see how the flow is constructed and make adjustments as needed. Using this visual paradigm encourages better understanding of the workflow and enhances overall flow management.

While other methods like importing actions from a template or typing actions directly may provide additional flexibility, dragging and dropping actions remains one of the most straightforward and accessible methods to build and modify workflows effectively.
