help Azure Logic Apps FAQ

What is the difference between Azure Logic Apps and Microsoft Power Automate?

Logic Apps is an Azure service aimed largely at cloud integration, application workflows, and DevOps-managed enterprise systems. Power Automate is oriented more toward business users automating Microsoft 365 and everyday organizational processes.

Can Azure Logic Apps connect to on-premises databases?

Yes, it can reach supported on-premises systems through Microsoft's on-premises data gateway or through network-integrated deployment patterns. The appropriate method depends on whether the workflow uses Consumption or Standard hosting and how the private network is configured.

How are Azure Logic Apps workflows billed?

Consumption workflows are generally billed according to trigger, action, connector, and operation usage. Logic Apps Standard uses a hosting model based on provisioned workflow capacity, so it can suit predictable or higher-volume workloads differently.

When should I use Azure Functions instead of Logic Apps?

Use Logic Apps when a visual workflow and prebuilt connectors handle most of the integration. Azure Functions is better for custom code, specialized algorithms, or processing that does not map cleanly to connector actions, and the two services can be combined.
