Connection to form lost after moving form to a group

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2
I have made some forms and the according power automate streams to handle information questions and sends emails to the right adresses and they worked.
Now we need to work with more then one person on the streams and forms so we moved the forms to a group/team where I am a member (and owner) also my collegae is member of that group.
 
After this move operation the definition of the streams cannot find the forms from this group and it seems that an solution is
1 Get the formId from this form in forms (al long string with no clear clue which form this is)
2 in the stream use this long string when you need to get the form.
This seems to work, but is a loosy solution in my opinion, is there a better way to get the right form in the stream definition ?

    @CU13021438-0 If the form isn't appearing in the dropdown list of your action, you'll have to manually insert the form ID. Not sure how to do this? Check out this section of the first tutorial listed below.

    Hi I saw your solution to get the form id in the stream.
    This was the way I solved it I found this solution somewhere else.
     
    But my question was, is this the only way to solve this ? 
    I should think that in the drop down list where you can search for the form where you are the owner of, you see all valid forms, but after you bring the form to a group where you are member of, this option is lost ??
    Strange behaviour
