Set up
Skills are installed by placing their folder where your agent loads skills.
The download comes from github.com/microsoft/power-platform-skills itself, not from our server, so what you get is exactly what its author published. The ZIP holds the whole collection; take the folder plugins/power-automate/skills/telemetry out of it for telemetry.
Part of the collection microsoft/power-platform-skills.
npx skills add microsoft/power-platform-skills --skill telemetry
Or by hand: Copy the folder plugins/power-automate/skills/telemetry from github.com/microsoft/power-platform-skills into ~/.claude/skills/telemetry/ (Claude Code) or your agent's skills folder. Check the collection's own README for other agents.

Power Automate Telemetry Control
Enable, disable, or check the status of pseudonymous usage telemetry for the
power-automate plugin.
What is collected
Telemetry is pseudonymous. It records operational fields — skill name,
plugin version, OS/Node versions, agent name/version, Dataverse organization
and Entra tenant IDs, and the signed-in user's Entra object ID when PAC exposes
it. It never includes file paths, prompts, tool inputs, flow names, URLs,
credentials, usernames, hostnames, or error messages. Plugin hook events have a
local diagnostic log, one file per session, under
~/.power-platform-skills/telemetry/power-automate/sessions/<sessionId>/events.jsonl
(nothing is transmitted when telemetry is OFF). Session logs older than 14 days
are pruned automatically. This hook log is separate from FlowAgent CLI/MCP
telemetry, whose local mirror is ~/.flowagent/telemetry.jsonl by default
(FLOWAGENT_TELEMETRY_LOG overrides the path) and is not automatically pruned.
The status command below reports the plugin hook's setting and session logs;
it also prints the core log's path and whether the file exists, not whether a
particular CLI/MCP call is eligible for remote collection.
Workflow
-
Determine the action from the user's request /
$ARGUMENTS:on— opt inoff— opt out (nothing transmitted; local log still kept)status(default) — report current state
-
Run the bundled config CLI and show its output verbatim:
node "${PLUGIN_ROOT:-$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/lib/telemetry/lib/telemetry-config.js" --action <on|off|status> --plugin power-automateFor
status, also show the FlowAgent CLI/MCP local log location:node -e 'const fs = require("node:fs"); const os = require("node:os"); const path = require("node:path"); const log = process.env.FLOWAGENT_TELEMETRY_LOG || path.join(os.homedir(), ".flowagent", "telemetry.jsonl"); console.log(`FlowAgent CLI/MCP local log: ${log}${fs.existsSync(log) ? "" : " (not created yet)"}`);' -
Confirm the result to the user in one sentence.
