Build better flows with Power Automate coalesce expression


The Power Automate coalesce expression is a useful tool for optimizing flows. It allows you to simplify flow design by returning the first non-null value from a list of values. This can be used to replace expressions checking if something is empty, as well as to reference flow actions. By using the coalesce expression, you can reduce duplicate actions and create more compact flows. It can also be used to implement "try and see" functionality, where actions are run only if the previous one failed. Overall, the coalesce expression is a valuable tool for optimizing and streamlining Power Automate flows.
