Today I’m happy to introduce a highly-anticipated milestone: Flow users can now trigger their workflows using physical buttons. This capability comes as a first step of connecting Flow to the real world, to enable leveraging Microsoft Flow for so many more business scenarios.
On an overcast Friday, over thirty hackers gathered in Microsoft’s Building 27 to do something new with Flow. Normally, Flows are triggered based on virtual events, like an email sent or a Trello card posted. For the first time, these hackers were triggering actions from the press of a button in the physical world.
