Moving Power Automate Flows?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 41

Over the summer we had an intern develop an application for my organization that used PowerApps, Power Automate flows, and a backend using SharePoint lists. He did this in a development site collection that was created for him. As the SharePoint admin, my organization has asked me to move these pieces into "production".  The Powerapps forms and the SharePoint lists are simple enough to move and reconnect, but I can't figure out what to do about the Flows. Can someone point me in the right direction? Is it even possible?

    You can either try to create a solution and add the flows to it and then export and import.

    If not possible you can export each flow as a package and import the package to the other environment.

    Hey Mate,  I agree with @Mira_Ghaly  and here are some support documentation which should help you. 

     

    Export and Import a Power Platform Solution - > https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/export-flow-solution 

    Export Import Power Automate -> https://flow.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/import-export-bap-packages/ 

     

    One very painful thing, When you will import Flows to use for the production lists, you have to go through the Flow and update every action to point to the correct SharePoint URL and select the correct list.(Manually) This is very very painful...
