Good Morning,

I have a Runtime error on one of my apps that is occurring due to a deleted flow that was associated with the app. The Runtime error is preventing me from exporting the app as a .ZIP file. Is there any way to remove, disassociate the deleted flow from the app? I've tried to recover the flow but that was not successful. Thank you in advance for any suggestions, ideas, etc.

Patti

@TheRobRush ,
You're a genius! That actually worked for one of the apps and I was able to export it, I can use that one for a template. I had multiple flows that varied from one to the other and deleted all of them, so a couple apps still have a runtime error. Thanks again!

Have you tried maybe creating a flow with same name, importing it, then exporting the app and see if you can fool it?

@TheRobRush ,
Thanks for your help/suggestions. Apparently, after 20/21 days a deleted flow cannot be recovered. I deleted the flow in early January, well past the 20 days. I may have to rebuild the canvas app and not associate any flows with that app.
Thanks again,

If they have not yet, I would attempt the methods outlined here

If you have already done first method, have them hit it in PowerShell

@TheRobRush ,
Thank you for the quick response! My admin ran my flow to restore deleted flows and he received the same result; the flow didn't return any deleted flows. Is there another method we can use to either restore the flow or remove the Runtime error from my canvas app?
Thanks!

If that does not work, you need to contact your system admin team. Restoring deleted flows requires Azure Rights that you likely don't have if you are not part of that team.
