Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

We have been trying to replae all Dataverse connections inside our flows from individual and service accounts to be now based on Service Principal. This can only be done from inside a flow and it automatically creates a connection reference on the basis of this in the source environment. This creates a problem with deployment because when you deploy this solution, it asks which Connection in the target environment you want to be associated with this new Connection Reference you are importing. Problem is if you create a Dataverse Connection directly from either Power Apps interface or Power Automate interface, it doesn't allow you to do it via a Service Principal. This option is only available from when you right click the Flow step and create one from there. Obviously we could do this in the target environment but then this would create an Unmanaged Layer which we want to avoid at all costs. Is there a way around this?
