5. What are Logic Apps?
• Automate business process execution
• Under suite of Azure APP Service
• Workflow Engine
• Non Technical people can use Logic Apps to automate

6. Logic Apps for easy automation
• No code designer for rapid creation
• Dozens of pre-built templates to get started
• Out of box support for popular SaaS and on-premises apps
• Use with custom API apps of your own
• BizTalk APIs for expert integration scenarios

7. Logic App Concepts
• Workflow
Graphical way to model your business processes as a series of steps or a workflow.
• Managed APIs
Used to connect working data.
• Triggers
A trigger starts a new instance of a workflow based on a specific event, like the arrival of an e-mail
• Actions
Each action typically maps to an operation on your managed or custom API apps.

9. Triggers
• Triggers define when Logic Apps are run
• Manual or Schedule or WebHooks
• Connector Triggers – Polling or Push
• Connector Triggers (Polling)
• 200: Data is available, run the logic
• 202: No data is available, check again later
• ‘trigger State’ parameter to externalize state
• Optimize for Logic Apps
• Hide trigger specific properties
Manual Schedule API AppTrigger API Polling
200: run
202: wait
trigger state
WebHook
POST
{
“outputs”:
{
“par”: 20
}
}

10. Actions
Each step after the trigger in a workflow is called an action. Each action typically maps to an operation on your managed
connector or custom API apps.
