Execute Workflows from Unix Shell\Command Line with Arguments

CI / CD is critical to any production level process, especially when multiple authors are contributing new features to the same workflow. Currently, multi-author editing of workflows is extremely difficult, and something that would be aided greatly by using git to control different branches of ongoing work. Luckily, that's something we can already do today! However, the ability to test before merging a pull request is critical to modern CI / CD pipelines. For this, it we need to be able to run a headless workflow from a CI / CD environment. Also, having the ability to pass in parameters to the workflow would allow for robust integration testing - something that isn't straightforward today without running on production environments.

I was accessing the community to post this very topic.  For company's having very tight security protocols, most data movement workflows cannot be pushed to the server.  With that, we really need the ability to schedule these in Power Automate - or some other tool that can launch workflows from a command line prompt.

 

I believe this would be a feature re-launch as this was previously available.
