During the following real-world scenario, a user uses Copilot to request insights on their payment process created in Power Automate. The user is then notified about important information such as the most time-consuming activity or the bottleneck in the process as well as other important insights.

As you may observe, the user then asks Copilot what exactly is causing the bottleneck. The user is then able to identify what is causing the bottleneck as well as unintentional illegal activity being performed by the organization for not having the correct processes in place.

With this new information, the user was then able to request Copilot a suggested flow that will resolve the issue. Copilot presents a well-considered course of action aimed at addressing the bottleneck and rectifying the underlying issues as seen below.
