Run a Child Flow - "The workflow could not be found"

Hi,

I'm trying to call a Child Flow from a Parent Flow using "Run a Child Flow".

- Parent and Child flows were created from scratch
- Both are in the same Solution
- Same environment and owner
- Child flow runs successfully when tested directly

However, when the Parent Flow calls the Child Flow, it fails with:

"The workflow '<guid>' could not be found."

I've already recreated both flows and re-added the Run a Child Flow action, but the issue remains.

Has anyone experienced this before?

Thanks.

Please insert your image directly within your post as there is currently an issue with attachments being released. I assume the screen shot shows the configuration of the Run child flow action. If not, please include a screen shot that shows how the action has been configured.

Thanks for your response.

I've added the requested screenshots directly to the post, including both the Parent Flow and Child Flow.

As additional context, the Child Flow runs successfully when I test it independently. I only encounter this issue when the Parent Flow tries to invoke the Child Flow using the "Run a Child Flow" action.

Also, these are just test flows that I created to validate the setup. If this works correctly, I plan to integrate the same approach into my actual flow.

Thanks.
