An agent uses a flow that calls an external service which can occasionally fail or time out.
When a failure occurs, the agent must meet the following requirements:
- Must not terminate silently.
- Must send a notification containing the error details.
You need to configure the agent flow so that failures are handled in a controlled and predictable way.
Solution: Terminate the flow immediately on error.

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer
Correct:
* Configure run after conditions for failure paths.
You should configure the "Run after" conditions in Power Automate (the underlying flow engine) to handle these failures in a controlled and predictable way.
By default, a cloud flow step only runs if the previous step is successful. If your external service fails or times out, all subsequent steps will normally skip, causing the flow to fail silently from the perspective of the Copilot Studio agent.
How to Configure the Flow for Failure Handling
To meet your requirements, you need to create a parallel or sequential failure path using the following steps:
1. Add your Notification Action
2. Configure "Run After" Settings
Incorrect:
* Retry the failing action without handling failure.
* Send a notification with relevant error details.
* Terminate the flow immediately on error.
