name	power-automate-action-configuration
description	Configure Microsoft Power Automate cloud-flow triggers and actions from JSON, connector references, or designer semantics. Use for operation inputs, connector schemas, Office 365 Outlook email actions, SharePoint actions, Dataverse actions, connectionReferences, runAfter, retry policies, secure inputs/outputs, and action payload shape decisions.

Power Automate Action Configuration

Use this when editing definition.actions, definition.triggers, or connectionReferences in a Power Automate cloud-flow artifact.

Procedure

1. Identify the connector/action key in the JSON and the display action in the designer.
2. Read the official connector reference for that connector if payload shape is uncertain.
3. Preserve existing connectionReferences; only change them when explicitly remapping credentials/connections.
4. Keep runAfter explicit when moving actions between branches.
5. Validate binary, attachment, and file-content fields against the connector docs and at least one live run when possible.
