Access to connection references not being validated

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 40
Good morning, 

I have encountered an issue where my unattended flow has stopped working. The flow has been running for a few months now and over this weekend stopped working. I had to re-establish the connection the the machine that the flow is running on. Once that had been done I then got a new error stating that the flow connections to excel business has not been validated. The connection reference is in the solution and the flow works perfectly well when run manually on the desktop app.

I have attached an image of the failure that I get on the cloud flow.


Any help on how to sort this out would be great, 
Thank you

    I ended up deleting the cloud flow and creating a new one. This fixed the problem.
