Error during flow initialization

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 8

From last week we have not been able to open / edit one of our flows. We get error with code: Correlation Id: 4839ede2-02b8-4d19-8dbb-3828c04733e8

 

We are able to create new flows.

 

Is there any way to roll back changes of the flow if it's corrupted somehow? Project is very large and not too happy to start it over 🙂

    Update:

     

    When trying to duplicate the flow I get error: Correlation Id: 2096df74-2d60-4189-8e80-2a3c607a813a

    Also when trying to run the flow I get this:
