Yes, it's still in testing phase, but I have successfully rewritten (not converted) a few of our Foxtrot scripts to Power Automate. The annoying thing is trying to share them with coworkers when you do not have the higher end license. There are a few other annoyances, but there are also a few good things about it compared to Foxtrot. I think it's best at doing non-5250 session work, but that is what I am automating with it, so it can be done and it does work.
In general I think it's a great free offering and is probably even better with a paid version and I'm not generally a MS fan so this is not a paid or fanboy endorsement 😊

**** CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL ****
Hey,
Is anyone here using Microsoft Power Automate Desktop RPA or Power Apps to automate any of your work ?
I have been doing some work with it and the desktop part is now included as part of Windows 10/11.
You can do things like:
-Automate web site nav from the web browser.
-Send and receive emails.
-Do OCR processing.
-Read/write DB2 data to Excel.
Regards,
Richard Schoen
