Simplify Flow Settings With A Config File In Power Automate Desktop


A Power Automate Desktop config file allows developers to store settings separately from the automation logic. The config file is a JSON file that holds configuration data used by a desktop flow. To create a config file, open Windows Explorer, create a new folder, and create a text document file inside the folder. Rename the document and change the extension to ".json". Open the config file in a text editor and copy and paste the JSON object into the file. In Power Automate Desktop, the first action should be to read the config file and store the values in a custom object variable. The config file values can then be used in the flow.
