How to keep connection reference from another user

Hello,
 
I have 2 flows in my solution using an Outlook connection from another user because he has the right to send mails to specifics Teams channels.
 
When I make the import of the solution in another environment, the connection reference is created with my own account.
 
This another user is not a maker and I cannot ask him to add his connection each time I have to update the solution.

    Maybe because I'm not admin of the environment, I cannot reuse the connection of another user.
    He tries to modify the flow in a managed solution to put his connection, the tests are ongoing and I'll close this topic if it works.
     
    If it doesn't work, I'll try to put an unmanaged solution in production but I really don't like this idea.

    When I import the solution. And if I import, the connection is imported with my name, as I've shown in my first post.

    The picture is from while importing the solution or it inside the flow when you open it in the edit mode? Did he create the connection in the connections tab?

    The connection appears with my name, not with his name so I cannot keep it.

    Yeah you have to have them create the Connection in the environment so when you import  you can select it, thats the only way
     
    As CA1105 said.

    You can ask him to create one time that connection in the connections tab and later you can you his/her connection while importing the solution.
