I'm trying to use a flow to shut the device down when external power is lost. While that part works perfectly, I have to manually reset the flow to run after booting back up. Is there a way to set it and forget it?

Thanks

Enable the "Run on system startup" option in Automate settings.
To perform an task after a reboot use the Broadcast receive block with action Boot completed.

I'm not the original poster, but I have the same problem, and the suggested steps don't solve the problem. Is there anything else to try?

Thanks, that fixed it!

Maybe add something that autodetects this problem at install time? I've been blocked by this for months.

It's not a standard feature, so there's likely no API to detect it.
