Create Animated Doughnut in Notepad

This example shows how to read JSON data, loop items and print output to screen (Notepad in this case).
Notes

  • Power Automate Desktop can be very slow when sending large amount of text with the Send keys action, even when Delay between keystrokes is set to 0. A much faster method is to first use action Set clipboard text and then only send Ctrl+V with Send Keys action (see lines 7-8).

  • Set Run delay to 1 ms if you would like to speed up the animation.
