Question 39

Scenario: Executive Services, Inc. is a Headhunter agency who’s CEO is Lenny Rollie. Their main office is in Manhattan, New York and has been wildly successful in placing top-level executives at many key companies around the world. Lenny has approached you to assist ESI in their internal IT projects and has asked you to advise the IT team on the following matter.

The current project that you are consulting on deals with creating an app with Power Automate using Microsoft Power Automate buttons.

The developer is creating a flow button that will allow a user to report damage that was noticed on the company's property. The data will be saved on a SharePoint list.

Which of the following user input options is used for adding images to a flow?

  • A

    File and Email

  • B

    Email

  • C

    File

  • D

    Image

Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  • The file is the user input option that is used for adding images.

Two actions are needed to attach an image to a new SharePoint item. Create the item first and then add the attachment.

Building a Power Automate flow is the same as building any other workflow where you have a start and an end. A flow always starts with a trigger action. After you have added the trigger, you will add steps. Each step can be an action, a condition, or a combination of actions and conditions. The flow always ends with an action.

Two ways to design the process for a button flow are by using an existing template with a button trigger and by building a template from blank.

Six types of user inputs

Currently, Power Automate flows can have six different types of user inputs:

  • Text

  • Yes/No

  • File

  • Email

  • Number

  • Date



Text

Text input is best used for adding text. When you select the ellipsis (...) at the upper-right of the screen, you will see the Delete option and three other options:

  • Add a drop-down list of options

  • Add a multi-select list of options

  • Make the field optional


Yes/No

The Yes/No input type is best used to select yes or no options.


File

The File content input type can be used to upload files and images.


Email

The Email input type is where you would enter an email address. The other inputs complement the use of email input.


Number

The Number input type is best used to add a numerical value.


Date

For the trigger Date input type, you can either enter or select a date.


The Yes/No, File, Email, Number, and Date input types have the same options, for example, to make the field optional and Delete.

A. The "File and Email" user input option does not specifically address the need to add images to a flow in Power Automate. While both file uploads and email inputs can be useful in different scenarios, the "File" option is more appropriate for adding images to a flow.

B. The "Email" user input option is not typically used for adding images to a flow in Power Automate. While emails can contain attachments, the "File" option is specifically designed for uploading images and other files to the flow.

C. The "File" user input option is used for adding images to a flow in Power Automate. This option allows users to upload files, including images, to the flow for processing and storage in a SharePoint list.

D. The "Image" user input option is not a standard user input option in Power Automate for adding images to a flow. The "File" option is the correct choice for uploading images, as it allows users to select and upload image files for processing in the flow.
