دانلود کتاب اتوماسیون گردش کار با Microsoft Power Automate -طراحی و مقیاس‌بندی گردش‌های کاری ابری و دسکتاپ مبتنی بر هوش مصنوعی

There was a time when “automation” meant writing a script that only worked on your laptop, broke every Friday, and required you to fix it before anyone noticed. Thankfully, those days are (mostly) over. Microsoft Power Automate has continued to evolve over the past few years since the last edition of this book. It’s moved from just being the duct tape of digital productivity (except smarter, cleaner, and slightly less sticky) to something that can be used to streamline both your business and your daily tasks. This third edition of Workflow Automation with Microsoft Power Automate takes things further. Robotic process automation lets you automate the previously unautomatable—the old apps that refuse to retire and the screens that pretend it’s still 2003. Copilot now helps you build flows by simply explaining what you want in plain English, which means you can finally stop arguing with your syntax (again, mostly). And with access to AI tools and models built into the platform, your automations can analyze, predict, and respond faster than you can get ChatGPT to spit out a rap about oatmeal. You’ll still find the familiar foundations from the previous edition: how to connect cloud and on-premises systems, streamline repetitive work, and reclaim the hours you’ve been donating to manual tasks. But this time, we’ll do it with a little more intelligence—and a little more personality. Hopefully, you’ll pick up some ideas along the way on how low-code automation and AI can make everything just a little easier. This book is for anyone who’s ever thought, “There has to be a better way to do this.” If you’re new to Microsoft Power Platform—whether that means Power Automate, Power Apps, or Power BI—you’re in the right place. You don’t need to know how to code, architect enterprise systems, or speak fluent tech jargon. You just need a healthy curiosity and maybe a mild frustration with repetitive work to inspire you to find a new way. We’ll start with the basics: simple, practical tasks that teach you how the pieces of the platform work. From there, you can move right into learning more complex skills, maybe even getting some ideas on how to begin solving problems you have right now. Along the way, you’ll build real workflows—things you can export, use, and brag about to your dog. By the end, you’ll see how the Power Platform can turn routine work into something smarter, faster, and (dare we say?) kind of fun.
