Reduce the number of variables in your Power Automate flow

In Power Automate, you can reduce the number of "Initialize variable" actions by using existing dynamic content or expressions instead of creating variables. If you only need to store an output value, you can reference the output directly without creating a variable. For conditions, you can use the "if()" expression instead of a variable. If you're unsure which action ran, you can use the "coalesce()" expression to get the output from the active action. Instead of appending data in a loop using a variable, it's better to avoid variables altogether as they can slow down the flow. For storing flow configuration, you can use a single object variable with multiple properties instead of multiple variables. Overall, you can reduce the number of variables in your Power Automate flow and make it cleaner by utilizing existing dynamic content and expressions.
