Explanation
This item tests the candidate’s knowledge of basic development patterns and error handling.
The try/catch pattern is a standard development pattern that is very helpful in Power Automate. All the steps that could error are wrapped into a scope (the try scope). The next step directly after the scope is the catch step. When there are several steps to execute when an error occurs (for example send a mail and log to some other system or reset some variables), this also could be a scope. The run after configuration of the catch step has to be set to has failed and has timed out to make it only run when the try scope fails or times out.
