Updating the Power Automate Connector

Learn how to manually update any existing Nimbus Power Automate connector

Luware development implements changes in the upcoming Nimbus Power Automate Connector (v1) and starts a certification process with Microsoft right after every major Nimbus release.

šŸ¤”When do I need to manually update a custom connector? If the official Nimbus Release Notes mention new connector features which you would like to try out ahead of time ā€“ e.g. by adding new actions and triggers ā€“ you can perform a manual update and install the V1 connector as Custom Connector on your Tenant.

INC Power Automate Connector Update Path

Nimbus Power Automate connector - Release cycle and Update path
Customer Tenant Admin Procedures

Nimbus Customers can choose between following upgrade paths for the Power Automate connector:Ā 

A: Update Path B: Migration Path
From the Custom Connector page, retrieve the V1 connector. Install it locally on your Tenant as a ā€œcustom connectorā€. When you are already using the custom connector, you need to migrate all your existing Flows to the certified connector from the Microsoft Power Automate store.
Benefits: Newest connector functionality is available as soon as the custom connector is installed. Benefits: Once migrated, future connector updates are rolled out automatically.
Drawbacks: Manual future Connector Migration effort. Drawbacks: Initial migration effort. Due to the Microsoft recertification process, the certified connector will get new features later.
Luware Development

Whenever Luware releases a Nimbus Version, the ā€œUpcoming V1ā€ connector can be retrieved as a Luware-hosted download.Ā 
Luware / Microsoft connector Certification Process

The V1 download package is submitted to Microsoft for Store Certification.

  • Once this approval is done, the submitted V1 connector becomes the new ā€œcertified connector" directly available in the Microsoft Store. Customers already using the certified connector get updates automatically.Ā 
  • Flows may need minor adjustments (e.g. to make use of new Flow Actions / Trigger Events features).

šŸ’”Note: Each update triggers a re-certification process by Microsoft and takes ~4-6 weeks.

šŸ’”Good to know: Ā If you performed a Connector Migration before now use the Microsoft store-certified connector, you can skip the update steps shown below. After each V1 connector update re-certification by Microsoft, your connector updates automatically.
