Do you have Premium licence? If so then add the flow into a solution in Power Automate cloud (make.powerautomate.com). Then select the solution and press Export.

Wait a little bit and it should give download button and then press download. After that you should have .zip file of the solution. Then just go to the other environment and Import it in the same Solutions tab.

If you do not have premium license then you need to use just copy and paste method. So copy all the actions in your Power Automate Desktop flow and paste them into a text file. Then send that text file to the machine/environment you want to bring the PAD flow. Then create a new flow and paste all the actions. Note that both Power Automate Desktop applications should be same version.

Hi

Ensure you possess the "System Customizer" security role in your target environment to import your solution. If not, please request your admin to grant the necessary security role to your profile.

Thanks,

Hi,

It seems your colleague is currently experiencing a security role issue. Please assign them permissions similar to yours. If the problem persists, try assigning the 'System Customizer' role to your colleague to see if it resolves the issue.
