Flow not working when moving environments inside a powerApps model driven solution

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 9

Here is my problem:

 

Environment Dev(Sandbox)

Created an App, Solution, Custom entities and an approval flow using the trigger event "When a row is added"

I have set up a service principal for my Dataverse connection and connection references.

 

Environment Test (Sandbox)

I exported the solution then imported into the test environment. All solution pieces are there including the flow. However the flow will not trigger when I add a new row. I can create a new flow as a test and it will fire.

 

- I reset the connections

- I deleted and recreated the trigger event in the flow

- I used the same service principal, made them the same names as the Dev environment

 

I really do not want to create the flow in each environment. I am thinking I am missing maybe a permission someplace but as Environment Maker in both environments it should fire for me.

 

Another quick question: If I want the flow to run for everyone in the company right now it will only run as me the owner, Do I need to share it with something like the basic user?

    @ThomasAOI ,

     

    Are you using environment variables for sites and lists?

    I am using environment variables, however I figured out the problem.

     

    I set the trigger to fire as "Organization" instead of "User" and that did the trick.
