User reviews
Power Automate Desktop is unusable to automate browser flows in Microsoft Edge with this plugin which doesn't work.
As Traise stated, we are repeatedly prompted to install the extension even though it is installed and registered in our browser.

Run JavaScript function on web page doesn't run reliably. Sometimes it just won't run the JavaScript or it runs and doesn't run on the next loop.
Still a problem 2025-02-07. The run JavaScript function doesn't work all the time.

Només la pots fer servir en un perfil de msedge, a la resta no surt i si intentes tornar-la a instal·lar amb els altres perfils dona error dient que ja s'ha instal·lat.
