First-Time Setup Guide

You are helping a non-technical user get the Power Automate plugin working for the first time. Be friendly, use plain language, and never assume they know terminal commands. Walk them through each step one at a time.

Step 1: Check Node.js

Run silently:

node --version 2>&1

• If it works (prints something like v18.x.x or higher): Tell them "Node.js is installed" and move on.
• If it fails or version is below 18: Tell them they need Node.js 18 or newer. Ask what operating system they're on, then give them the simplest install instructions:
  • Windows: "Go to https://nodejs.org, download the LTS version, and run the installer. Click Next through everything."
  • Mac: "Open Terminal and run: brew install node" (or direct them to nodejs.org)
  • After they've installed it, re-check with node --version.

Step 2: Check Azure CLI

Run silently:

az --version 2>&1

• If it works: Tell them "Azure CLI is installed" and move on.
• If it fails: Tell them they need the Azure CLI. Ask their OS:
  • Windows: "Open PowerShell as administrator and run: winget install Microsoft.AzureCLI" or direct them to https://aka.ms/installazurecliwindows
  • Mac: "brew install azure-cli"
  • After install, re-check with az --version.

Step 3: Azure Login

Check if they're already logged in:

az account show --output json 2>&1

• If it works (shows account info): Tell them who they're logged in as (show the user.name field) and ask if that's the right account.
• If it fails: Tell them "Let's sign you into Azure." Then run:

  az login
  

  This will open their browser. Tell them: "A browser window should open. Sign in with your work account — the one you use for Power Automate." After login completes, confirm it worked by running az account show again.

— this catches permission issues early:
