Microsoft Teams will be bringing workflows powered by Power Automate into the overflow menu for chats.
To make sure Microsoft Teams provides the best workflow experience for our users we are making it easier to configure workflows for chats. From the list of chats users will be able to go into the overflow menu for a specific chat (...) and select "Workflows". Here they will see a list of workflow templates specific to chats within Teams. Users can then configure these templates to their needs and deploy them to the chat.
