How to automatically backup your Power Automate flows

There is no built-in versioning feature for Power Automate flows, but you can create your own backups by exporting the flow JSON definition. To do this, you can use the "List My Flows" action to get basic information about your flows, then use the "Get Flow" action to retrieve the full flow details. Store this information in a JSON file as your backup. While you can't restore the backup with a button click, you can use it to identify changes by comparing it with the live flow. You can use a code editor like Visual Studio Code to format and compare the JSON files. This manual backup process is better than having no backup at all.
