Hello!  I can no longer see my flows.  Instead, I get an error that says "an error occurred while communicating with the cloud services.  make sure that access to the required cloud services aren't blocked and try again" (screenshot attached below) I have no idea what happened, but this error appears at every machine I try to log into.  I've been using PAD every day for weeks without a problem and then today, this.  Has anyone else experienced the same issue?

    Hello, JasonTran4000, For this first time in over a week, I was finally able to successfully log in, but unfortunately, all of my flows are missing!  When I go to the online OneDrive, I can see the flows there in the original 'Graph' folder, but now that I'm able to log in, there's a new 'Graph 1' folder with nothing in it.  Not sure how to recover those over.

    Thank you, JasonTran4000, for your continued work on getting something to work.  I have confidence that we will figure this out!  Meanwhile, I have someone from Microsoft OneDrive support looking into the issue from their end, although it's looking more and more like it's a PAD issue.

    2日前から同じような状況となっています。
    急にフローが作成できなくなり、以前作成したフローも見えず、エラーメッセージが表示されています。
    何か手が無いか、試行錯誤していましたが、挙句の果てにはホーム画面にまでも到達できなくなりました。
    助けてほしい。

    I also couldn't access it with my Hotmail account, but I was able to access it after creating an Outlook account.
     
    Please tell me how to restore the flow from local files. 
     
    I was able to find the folder with the created flow at the following path:
    C:\Users\{user}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Power Automate Desktop\Console\Workspace
     
    After that, I tried placing the folder in the following path under the OneDrive of my Outlook account, but it didn't work. Is there a way to import it into Power Automate?

    I am also experiencing difficulties accessing my Power Automate flows. While I can access OneDrive with my Hotmail account , I am unable to load my flows within the Power Automate environment. I have attempted logging out and back in with my Outlook account, and i don't have that issue.

    I suspect there may be an ongoing issue with the Microsoft server or maybe something relate with Hotmail maybe..

    In the meantime, to run the flow, you can recover it from your local files. This involves navigating to the following directory:

    C:\Users\{user}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Power Automate Desktop\Console\Workspace

    Please note that loading the recovered flow may take some time.
