Managing test-prod environment

Hi all,

 

i am managing an already running power automate process, composed by many flows, all belongin to a solution.

The majority of these flows uses a parent-child logic.

 

I am now adding a new requirement to the process, and in order to do that i created another sharepoint site for development-testing purpose, with all the sharepoint libraries-lists required. 

 

After doing that, i have started copying the flows in a new 'test' solution.

This process has caused some problem, because the child flows cannot exists outside a solution, so i have removed the 'respond to an app or a flow' connector, saved again the file with a new name, and finally added to the new solution.

When i tried to save them, i received an error:

Flow save failed with code 'WorkflowUnderWrongSubscription' and message 'The child workflow '{workflowIdWasHere}' must be under the same subscription as the parent workflow.

 

More in general, the entire process is dangerous and time-consuming.

 

Have you found a way to automate the whole versioning-porting process for a complex power automate solution?

Are there some tips or know-how you can give me to help me follow a reasonable 'software best-practices compliant way' of doing such things?

 

Why there are not things like branching-merging in power automate?

 

 

Many thanks,

Stevan
