Business value
You get more control and speed when debugging desktop flows with step over and step out. Quickly isolate issues in complex subflows without stepping through every action. Spend less time troubleshooting and more time building automations. Whether you’re refining your logic or reviewing a teammate’s work, you stay focused and reduce errors.
Feature details
Step over and step out give you more control when debugging desktop flows in Power Automate for Desktop. Step over lets you skip subflows without entering them, so you can focus on the main logic. Step out lets you exit a subflow and return to the parent flow, which is helpful when reviewing nested logic or skipping known sections. You’ll see new icons and tooltips for both actions in the debugger toolbar during a paused run.
This feature is off by default. To turn it on, go to the Tools menu in the designer and enable it. Then, start debugging a flow. The step over and step out buttons appear in the debugger toolbar, and hovering over each shows a tooltip with a short description.
