Power Automate Desktop Premium LicensingReddit post (r/MicrosoftFlow)
Their license provider's answer about running a desktop flow unattended under Premium only left them more confused about what counts as RPA.
Counts toward
Pages from Microsoft, used to check facts for every group.
Lists Power Automate Premium at US$15 per user per month, Process at US$150 per bot per month, and Hosted Process at US$215 per bot per month, all paid yearly. A Process Mining add-on costs US$5,000 per tenant per month.
Describes Premium as the user license for cloud flows, attended desktop flows, and process mining. Process is a capacity license for one cloud flow or one unattended bot with 250,000 actions a day.
States that Microsoft 365 licenses reach standard connectors only, and that one Process license can cover a flow group of up to 25 solution-aware flows sharing 250,000 actions a day.
Sets 40,000 Power Platform requests per Premium user and 250,000 per Process license each 24 hours, and counts failed actions and retries. It names the per-flow plan as a legacy license the Process license replaced.
Bills premium cloud and attended desktop flow runs at US$0.60 each and unattended or hosted desktop flow runs at US$3.00 each to an Azure subscription, with standard-connector flows excluded.
Keeps run history for 30 days, limits a run to 30 days, and turns off flows that fail for 14 days. It can turn off flows untriggered for 90 days unless the owner holds a premium or capacity license.
Describes desktop flows as Power Automate's RPA for Windows, web, and legacy applications, driven through UI elements, images, or coordinates.
Describes hosted machines and hosted machine groups that run unattended desktop flows on Microsoft-managed Azure virtual machines and scale bots with demand.
Describes process mining that builds process maps and KPIs from event logs in systems of record to find bottlenecks and automation candidates.
Lists Copilot in cloud flows, desktop flows, process mining, and the automation center, on by default, and turned off only at the tenant level through Microsoft support or the cross-geo data setting.
Describes agent flows in Copilot Studio as deterministic flows billed in Copilot Studio capacity for each action, and conversion of a cloud flow into an agent flow as one-way.
Bills agent flow actions at 13 Copilot Credits per 100 actions, with no charge when a Microsoft 365 Copilot licensed user triggers the flow through an agent. New agent flow runs stop once prepaid capacity runs out.
States that new customers buy Copilot Credits to run AI Builder features since November 1, 2025, and that licenses bought or renewed from November 1, 2026 carry no seeded AI Builder credits.
Describes data policies that group connectors and suspend apps, flows, and agents that break a policy, at design time and at run time.
Lets administrators classify desktop flow modules and actions as Business, Non-business, or Blocked, and warns that noncompliant desktop flows are suspended when a policy changes.
Recommends service principal ownership for mission-critical flows, which then need a Process license, a licensed flow group, or a designated licensed user.
Allows owner changes only for solution-aware flows; the new owner's license applies to scheduled and automated flows within up to seven days.
States that the CoE Starter Kit is no longer actively maintained and points to Inventory, Usage, Monitor, and Actions in the Power Platform admin center.
Explains that prompts and outputs can move outside the environment's region when cross-region data movement is allowed, and that Microsoft does not train foundation models on them.
