Microsoft splits Power Automate from Logic Apps
Power Automate is moving to its own SelfHostMultiTenant infrastructure. This creates separate HTTP trigger URLs and an Express Mode that bypasses some of the older Logic Apps routing. The change also means Power Automate and Logic Apps will follow independent release and billing schedules. Microsoft has delayed the inline UI update again, now targeting late 2026. Flows built with the old shared infrastructure will continue to run but sit on a path that Microsoft is no longer prioritising for new features.
Until now, Power Automate and Logic Apps shared the same backend, so updates, error behaviour, and connector fixes applied to both. Most users never noticed the overlap because the UI hid it. That shared foundation is ending. New flows will run on infrastructure that receives updates on a different cadence, while older flows stay on the legacy path. The gap between what works today and what Microsoft will support tomorrow just widened.
Analysis
Stop treating Power Automate as a stable, single platform and start treating it as two diverging products. Audit every production flow this week and replace any Logic Apps-style triggers with native Power Automate ones before the split makes migration harder.
