Import Solution in CDS containing canvas app fails for an application user

Hi,

I'm facing an annoying issue,

We have been moving server based interactions with CDS to a client id/secret auth flows, which includes our devops CI/CD pipelines.

However, if I try to import a solution containing a canvas app, an exception is thrown by the import solution step with the following output:

System.AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. ---&gt; Microsoft.Crm.CrmException: Code: GraphUserDetailNotFound Message: Kan de gebruiker 3c8747a5-5beb-41e9-b7b0-cafa92b4f3cd niet vinden in Graph.

For non dutch speaking people, the last part says, "can't find user 3c8747a5-5beb-41e9-b7b0-cafa92b4f3cd in Graph". Also no idea why this part is in dutch btw.

Anyway, I'm guessing the import fails because the application user isn't a office365 user and that's why the graph api can't find it, but to me it seems you should be able to do this with an application user.

Anybody know a way around this issue which doesn't include swapping back to username/password auth flows?

What version of Power Apps Build Tools are you using? You should be able to use Application User as per https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=microsoft-IsvExpTools.PowerApps-BuildTools, so it might be a bug. Do you get the same error if you try to manually import the solution as the application user?

Hi @rajyraman

The issue is not a bug with the powerapp tools it self, import of any other solution works just fine with the app user.

The problem is the fact that the solution contains a Canvas App, and I'm guessing the Canvas App import expects a O365 user with the appropriate permissions.

Manual import or using Wael Hamze's tools don't change the result.
