Business Process Flow Upgrade Database

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

When I want to create a new Business Process Flow, I have to upgrade the Common Data Service.

It links me to the Flow  Admin-Center, but there is no option to upgrade.

 

Where can I upgrade the Common Data Service?

Thanks in advance 🙂

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    From this doc we know that users of the previous version of Common Data Service can upgrade to the new CDS, but the details about the update process will be provided soon. Please check more details at here:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/common-data-service/entity-reference/dynamics-365-integration

     

     

    Best regards,

    Mabel Mao

    How long before Microsoft provide details of how we go about doing the database upgrade? It's not much use offering use the Business Process Flow functionality if there is no way for us to leverage it using our current Flow environments!

    I think there will be a new site, where the upgrade instructions will appear...

    Keep in mind, you have to do the upgrade until March 1, 2019. Otherwise the the old database gets deleted. However Flows and Powerapps are not stored in the database.
