Based on the given scenario, the type of flow that should be created using Power Automate is: C. Desktop Since the custom-built system runs on a manager's machine and does not have an API, the most appropriate type of flow to use is a Desktop flow. Desktop flows are designed to automate tasks on a local machine, interacting with desktop applications and performing actions similar to a user. In this case, the desktop flow can be configured to automate the process of entering new customer details into the custom-built system by interacting with the user interface and performing the necessary steps for data entry from the central spreadsheet. Therefore, option C (desktop) is the correct answer.
