Power Automate adds deleted flow recovery and Copilot cost tracking
Microsoft will let Power Automate users restore deleted flows starting June 2026. The update also brings a licensing dashboard that displays consumption reports for Copilot features to show usage and limit overages. The flow designer gains inline property views for quicker edits without switching panels. Video logs now record failures in desktop flows that run unattended on virtual machines. Process intelligence gains custom key performance indicators for tracking automation results.
Before this release, deleting a flow by mistake often meant starting over with no recovery path, and teams using Copilot for automation had no clear view of how those features affected their licensing bills until statements arrived. The recovery option now protects completed work for owners and admins while the dashboard makes AI consumption visible in advance. This matters for builders who connect apps to SharePoint because it turns experimental automations into something with measurable costs rather than unknown risks.
Analysis
The dashboard exposes costs that surprise most new builders who add approvals without checking first. Open the licensing dashboard in your Power Platform admin center this week and note current numbers before you link any flows to your expense tracker.
