width=\"700\"\/><\/p>\n<p>I often find myself constantly refreshing Bing Maps in the evening, waiting for the optimal time to start my commute home.\u00a0I know if I leave at the wrong time I may spend an extra 30 minutes waiting in traffic.\u00a0In just a few minutes, I was able to build a Flow that will automatically monitor traffic conditions for me, and notify my phone once traffic has subsided.\u00a0The Flow mobile app can send my current location, while the Bing Maps connector will give me the current travel time with traffic.\u00a0Awesome new features like <a href=\"https:\/\/preview.flow.microsoft.com\/blog\/use-expressions-in-actions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">expression editing in the Flow designer<\/a> allow me to write a simple expression to convert the seconds returned from Bing Maps commute time, into the minutes I want to specify on my button.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/expression.png\" width=\"700\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The until loop allows me to continue checking the Bing Maps route until the commute time is less than the time I specified when pressing the Flow button.\u00a0I\u2019m also able to set a limit on the until loop, so that after 30 minutes of checking a notification is sent to my phone to leave anyway with the current estimated commute time.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Building the Flow<\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s walk through how this flow was built step-by-step.\u00a0The first component is the trigger.\u00a0I\u2019m using the button trigger so I can invoke this manually using the Flow mobile app.\u00a0I\u2019ve added a single input called \u201cMinutes\u201d where I can provide the number of minutes I want to wait for traffic to be under.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/button20trigger.png\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Next I\u2019m adding an until loop.\u00a0The until loop can sometimes be tricky to understand, but the until loop allows me to keep executing an action <strong>until<\/strong> something happens.\u00a0In this case I want to keep checking traffic until travel time is below the minutes I specified.\u00a0I add the until loop (under the \u201c\u2026More\u201d when adding a new step), and add a \u201cGet route\u201d step from the Bing Maps connector.\u00a0We\u2019ll leave the until condition blank for now.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/maps\/create-a-bing-maps-key.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Follow these instructions<\/a> to get a Bing Maps API key, and once you have a key you can add the \u201cGet route\u201d action.\u00a0I\u2019m going to pass in the latitude and longitude of my current location (provided by the button trigger).\u00a0You\u2019ll notice I added a comma between latitude and longitude so it\u2019s a valid coordinate.\u00a0I provide my destination address (my home), and let it know I want time with traffic when driving.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/bing20get20route.png\"\/><\/p>\n<p>If I leave the until loop here, it will call \u201cGet Route\u201d instantly right after it finishes until it reaches the limit.\u00a0For my flow I want to add in a delay before checking traffic again.\u00a0I\u2019m going to add a \u201cDelay\u201d action and have it wait 1 minute (this is also within my Until loop).\u00a0This way it waits for 1 minute before checking traffic again.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/delay.png\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Now that my until loop has the actions I need, I can set the condition at the top of the loop.\u00a0My condition is to loop until the travel duration with traffic is less than or equal to my threshold.\u00a0So I add <strong>Travel duration traffic <\/strong>on the left hand, and select <strong>is less than or equal to<\/strong> as the operator.\u00a0 This next part requires some calculation though, as you can see from the outputs that \u201cTravel Duration Traffic\u201d is in seconds.\u00a0My button trigger has minutes, so I need to convert minutes to seconds for the comparison to work.\u00a0To do that I\u2019m going to click the <strong>Expression<\/strong> tab of the outputs, and write the following expression:<\/p>\n<p>mul(int(triggerBody()[&#8216;text&#8217;]), 60)<\/p>\n<p>Expressions are evaluated from the inside-out.\u00a0First it grabs the \u201ctext\u201d from my trigger (button trigger), which is the number of minutes I am looking for.\u00a0I then convert that to an integer (number with no decimals) using int().\u00a0Finally, I multiply that number by 60.\u00a0After clicking <strong>OK<\/strong> I have the following condition setup on my until loop.\u00a0You\u2019ll notice I also set the limits to only perform this loop 30 times or for 30 minutes, whichever comes first.\u00a0That way after 30 minutes even if traffic is still bad I&#8217;ll get a notification to head home.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/until20condition.png\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Finally, I need to send a notification to my device when it\u2019s a good time to leave.\u00a0I\u2019m going to add a condition after my until loop to see if traffic is currently below the threshold.\u00a0I need this check because it\u2019s possible 30 minutes passed before the threshold was met, meaning the until loop would complete.\u00a0The condition is the same one from above &#8212; check to see if current travel time is less than or equal to the number of seconds I am willing to sit in traffic.\u00a0If the current travel time is less than my threshold, I use the notification action to send a notification to leave now for the commute I\u2019m looking for.\u00a0If I never hit my threshold, I still send a notification letting me know I never hit the threshold.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/final20condition.png\" width=\"700\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Flow for Productivity and Flexibility<\/h2>\n<p>Not only did Microsoft Flow enable this powerful and intelligent automation of my day, I can easily customize it to any scenario.\u00a0Instead of a button trigger, I could replace with a schedule trigger to automatically start checking traffic every day at 5:00pm, or perhaps I want to configure the Flow to notify me exactly when I need to leave if I want to get to the airport by a certain time.\u00a0These types of customizations become as simple as modifying a few conditions and inputs, and highlight the productivity that comes from Microsoft Flow.<\/p>\n<p>Try
