Explanation
This item tests the candidate’s knowledge of the basic limitations of Power Automate in combination with environment variables.
Power Automate will cache the value of an environment variable within a cloud flow until it gets reset. This can be done by turning a flow off and on again. The standard integration will use the local value if present. Environment variables are basically data and therefore they cannot be published. Changes to them will take immediate effect if the cache of a Power Automate flow is cleared.
