Module 01 - Introduction and What You'll Need
In this module, Andrew Perez introduces generative prompting with AI Builders, a Power Platform feature that enables users to create advanced AI-driven solutions in Power Automate with minimal technical expertise. Students will learn how to leverage generative prompts to perform complex tasks without extensive model training, using familiar tools like Microsoft Forms and Outlook. The course emphasizes practical application, requiring access to Power Automate, AI Builder credits, and encourages creativity to explore diverse use cases.
Module 02 - Demo 1 Information and Setup
In this module, Andrew guides students through creating a practical solution to evaluate and improve resumes using generative prompting. Starting with Microsoft Forms, learners will build a tool that collects user information, desired industry, and resume files to provide an automated quality score and feedback. This approach helps streamline resume refinement before seeking external opinions, making the job application process more efficient and effective.
Module 03 - Creating a Form
In this module, Andrew guides students through the initial steps of creating a resume submission form using Microsoft Forms, accessed via the Power Automate Maker Portal. He explains how to set up key form fields, including email, industry preference, and file upload, while emphasizing practical considerations like environment setup and app navigation. This foundational lesson prepares learners to seamlessly integrate Forms with Power Automate for building automated workflows.
Module 04 - Building a Flow
In this module, Andrew, guides students through creating an automated cloud flow in Power Automate triggered by a Microsoft Forms submission. The lesson covers selecting the appropriate trigger, naming the flow, and adding a necessary action to retrieve detailed form responses dynamically. Students will learn how to connect their form to the flow and handle response data effectively to automate processes based on form submissions.
Module 05 - Generative Prompts
In this module, Andrew guides students through creating and customizing AI prompts to evaluate resumes against specific industry requirements using an AI builder tool. They demonstrate how to set up inputs, define instructions for relevancy scoring, and interpret AI-generated outputs in JSON format, emphasizing the flexibility and dynamic nature of prompt creation. By the end, learners will understand how to leverage generative AI capabilities to automate resume analysis with clear, actionable results.
Module 06 - Testing Generative Prompts
In this module, Andrew, demonstrates how to build and test a Power Automate flow that evaluates the relevancy of a resume against a specified industry using generative AI prompts. Students learn to handle file uploads, manipulate dynamic content, and troubleshoot common issues such as retrieving file content from OneDrive to ensure accurate prompt execution. The session highlights practical techniques for integrating AI-driven resume analysis with automated email notifications, emphasizing best practices for flow design and error handling.
Module 07 - Demo 2 Information
In this module, Andrew demonstrates how to leverage AI Builder and Generative Prompts to automate and enhance multilingual communication within organizations. Using real-world examples, he showcases solutions that translate messages, assess their appropriateness, and extract actionable items to streamline workflows. Students will learn how to build flows that improve clarity and efficiency in cross-language email exchanges, particularly in international or diverse workplace settings.
Module 08 - Building Translation Flow
In this module, Andrew demonstrates how to create an automated Cloudflow in Power Automate that triggers when a specific email arrives in Outlook, focusing on filtering to avoid unnecessary runs. He guides students through using AI Builder’s built-in translation action to convert email content from Spanish to English, highlighting the flexibility to translate between multiple languages without building custom AI models. Finally, Andrew shows how to enhance the flow by adding a generative AI prompt to summarize lengthy emails into concise, digestible messages, improving communication efficiency.
Module 09 - Adding Conditions to the Flow
In this module, Andrew demonstrates how to build an advanced conditional workflow using AI Builder to analyze email content for action items or summaries. The process involves creating a prompt that distinguishes between texts containing tasks and those that do not, then automatically generating concise outputs accordingly. Students will learn how to integrate this logic into Power Automate flows, test the functionality with real emails, and understand practical considerations like credit usage and approval steps.
Module 10 - Goodbye
In this module, Andrew explores the versatile capabilities of generative prompting within AI Builder, demonstrating its application beyond basic forms and Outlook integration. Students will learn how to leverage generative prompts to analyze data, create dynamic content, and automate decision-making processes across various platforms like SharePoint. By the end, learners are encouraged to experiment with these tools to discover innovative solutions tailored to their unique workflows.
