In Power Automate, connectors act like bridges that allow your flows to interact with different apps, services, and data sources.
Think of connectors as ready-made plugs – they make it possible for Power Automate to talk to apps like Outlook, SharePoint, Excel, Microsoft Teams, Twitter, OneDrive, SQL, and hundreds more without needing any code.
Example
Imagine you want to post a Teams message every time a new item is added to a SharePoint list:
• SharePoint connector → detects when a new item is added.
• Microsoft Teams connector → sends a message in a Teams channel with the item details.
This way, your team instantly gets notified without you having to check the SharePoint list manually.
Types of Connectors
1. Standard Connectors
2. Premium Connectors
3. Custom Connectors
