The Complete Power Automate Functions List

The Complete Power Automate Functions List

Welcome to The Complete Power Automate Functions List.

On this page you will find a categorized list of 140+ Power Automate functions with links to the official documentation. Power Automate already has an official functions list so why did I do this?

  • I wanted a functions cheat sheet where I could quickly see all the functions and how to write them
  • Organizing all of the functions into categories makes it easier to discover new ones
  • Gaps in the official Power Automate documentation can be filled-in with my own commentary


I hope you enjoy the Power Automate Functions List.

I have a question regarding using Proper Case with acronyms. I like the look of Proper Case, but we use quite a few acronyms. Have you run across something like this? Is there a solution?
