Power Platform Introduces Public Preview of Monitor Alerts

Microsoft has introduced Monitor Alerts in Power Platform, now available in public preview. The new feature gives admins the ability to set health thresholds and receive alerts when apps or flows begin to slip. This update aims to help organizations respond faster and prevent issues before they escalate.

Here’s what you need to know:

  • Why Monitor Alerts Matters

    Define healthy metrics so you only get alerted when it counts. This means fewer surprises, faster response times, and more focus on fixing issues instead of hunting for them.

  • Key Details

    Available in public preview today for tenant and environment admins—no setup required. You’ll find it in the Power Platform Admin Center.

  • Supported Alerts

    Monitor Alerts is currently available for canvas apps, model-driven apps, cloud flows, and desktop flows.

  • How to Use It

    In the Power Platform Admin Center, go to Monitor > Alerts, then create your alert. Set conditions (metric, threshold, evaluation window), then add recipients, then save & test. Adjust thresholds as needed to balance sensitivity vs. noise.

  • Best practices

    ✔ Align thresholds with SLAs

    ✔ Alert on trends, not noise

    ✔ Route alerts smartly

    ✔ Pair with recommendations

    ✔ Review and refine regularly
