Details

Body (from Message Center)

We are announcing the ability to analyze processes using object-centric process mining in Power Automate. This feature will reach general availability on May 1, 2026.

How does this affect me?
This feature allows users to analyze business processes by recording events that relate to many objects and object types in one process, preserving their relationships end-to-end. Instead of attributing one case to one sequence of activities, object-centric process mining lets one event belong to multiple objects (and object types), keeping the full context intact. Key capabilities of object-centric process mining allow you to:

Ingest your object-centric event logs from Azure Data Lake or OneLake.
Map object and event-level attributes to unlock detailed analytical opportunities.
Visualize your object-centric process in an understandable, customizable, and easy-to-read process map.
Visualize key metrics in a comprehensive process overview.
Analyze your process from process execution and throughput time viewpoint.
Focus on specific process areas by using filters or by specifying a particular path in the Process Analysis widget.

What action do I need to take?
This message is for awareness, and no action is required.
