Eliminate a flow from Power Apps using the flow ID

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by usaman45 314

Hi,

I attempted to export my power apps using the export package feature, however, I encountered the following error message:

The specified flow '4fb97e1f-af2f-4a7c-????-3e8fe???af37' has been removed.

Subsequently, I am aware that I must eliminate the flow from Power Apps, but is there a method to determine the name associated with the flow ID?

Thanks!

    Hi @usaman45 

     

    If the Flow is truly unused in the App, you may be able to use the "Broom" icon to remove unused flows from the app.

    The only other way I can think of if that does not work is to open each of the Flows and look for the ID/GUID that is causing the problem. It is probably in the URL when you open the Flow in Power Automate.

    Hi @usaman45 ,

     

    If you want to get the flow's display name , you could create such a flow:
