Overview

What is Microsoft Power Automate?
Microsoft Power Automate is a cloud-based workflow engine allowing users to easily automate processes with over 500 applications and services, including standard connectors like MS Dynamics, MS Planner, OneDrive for Business, Box, and Dropbox. For example, a Power Automate flow can trigger when an Acrobat Sign agreement completes successfully and then automatically store that signed agreement in a SharePoint directory.

What is Adobe Acrobat Sign Workflow Automation integrated with Microsoft Power Automate?
Adobe has enabled seamless access to Power Automate workflows right within the Acrobat Sign web interface. With this integration, Power Automate workflow creation, management, and execution capabilities are available right within Acrobat Sign. This creates a seamless, integrated experience for users to create and manage advanced workflows to automate their pre- and post-signing tasks regardless of whether they have existing Power Automate entitlements.

How is this feature different from using Acrobat Sign and Power Automate separately?
While Power Automate is usually an external web-based application that requires a separate entitlement from Microsoft, Acrobat Sign comes seeded with Power Automate entitlements and is activated upon feature enablement, eliminating Power Automate procurement complexities. In other words, with this feature, Acrobat Sign enterprise license holders get access to both standard and premium connectors of Power Automate to develop e-signature workflows.

What are some use cases that can be supported with this feature?
Examples of signature related automation workflows that can be supported include: 

  • Automating contract creation
  • Downloading and saving signed PDFs to cloud storage such as OneDrive, SharePoint, Box, and Google Drive
  • Automating conditional approver routing or template selections
  • Extracting data and pushing it to downstream systems to trigger downstream processing
  • Sending reminders and notifications via different channels such as Microsoft Teams or Slack.   

Prerequisites

  • An Adobe Acrobat Sign enterprise or business license is required to access the integration.
  • A Microsoft Work or School account with an Azure Active Directory is required to enable Microsoft Power Automate.
    • Instructions are provided on the enablement page if you don't have such an account.
  • Third-party cookies must be enabled in the user's browser settings to access the embedded Power Automate widgets.
  • Customers need to have the following allow-list settings in place if they have firewall restrictions: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/ip-address-configuration

Microsoft Power Automate entitlements that are included with the Adobe Acrobat Sign enterprise license

The Power Automate entitlements in the Acrobat Sign integration provide full use of a library of connectors, such as Premium connectors and Microsoft Dataverse, included as part of your Acrobat Sign enterprise license (limits on excessive use apply).

The Power Automate entitlements (referred to here as Included Entitlement) are activated for your organization by activating the Acrobat Sign Workflow Automation feature. The Included Entitlement is capped at usage limits outlined below and governed by Terms of Included Entitlement. Additional Power Automate entitlements can be procured directly from Microsoft for customers with a higher volume of transactions than the capacity below allows. Existing Power Automate customers can also apply their existing entitlements to automated workflows designed or run from within Acrobat Sign.

Terms of Included Entitlement

  • Flow created under the Included Entitlement must have at least one Acrobat Sign connector.
  • Adobe may discontinue this feature at any time upon notice to you, in which case you'll have the option of directly procuring entitlements from Microsoft to continue using the Power Automate workflows you have developed using this Included Entitlement.
  • Upon renewal of your sales order, Adobe may charge a fee for this feature.

Limits on use capacity

Power Automate flows, Dataverse storage, and API calls per month are subject to the following usage caps. Usage caps are calculated against the Microsoft tenant linked to your Acrobat Sign account. You can procure additional capacity at any time directly from Microsoft.
