Editing a flow

You can use Copilot to insert actions and troubleshoot your flow.

  1. With the Copilot pane open, use a prompt to tell Copilot to add an action to perform OCR on the file before saving it to SharePoint.

    Figure 23.7 – Adding an OCR action through Copilot
  2. Click the Perform OCR action to expand the action's flyout. Notice that there is no image file provided. Add a prompt to update the Image parameter. In this example, you can use the following prompt:

Use the file from Dropbox as the Image file for the Perform OCR action.

Figure 23.8 – Updating the Copilot prompt
  1. Simply respond yes in the prompt field.
  2. If Copilot is unable to perform the change on your behalf, you'll still be able to take its instructions and modify the flow accordingly, as shown in Figure 23.9.
