Application saying its Premium, but doesn't tell me why

Hello,

I have a Power Apps application that requires a Premium license, but I don't understand why the application requires Premium. The application calls flows, but none of them have the diamond symbol in their name or any where else.

Also, I just exported and re-imported the application to refresh it, but the application is still marked as Premium.

Here's the connection I am using:

Does anyone know where I can find what is making my Power Apps application require a Premium license? Thank you.

This is fairly common if you ever added a Premium connector to the app or the back end flow, even if you deleted it later. It will no longer show in the Connections list, but some of the metadata for it is still embedded in the app and that's why its marked as Premium. There is no easy way to get rid of that. One way to do it is to actually delete the Premium connection entirely using the admin center, but that will affect other apps or flows that used it. The other is to restore a version prior to adding the Premium connection. But that will lose any work that you've done since that version.

Hi @OpenMindt_abf

In addition to connections, it's also worth checking to see if you've used any premium components in your app (eg, AI Builder, Mapping components). PCF components that access external web resources will also force an app to become 'premium'.

Also, check the connections inside your Flow/s. There may still be some unused Premium connections still there. If so, remove them then Refresh the Flow/s inside your App or remove the Flow/s and re-add them back in.

You could just Refresh or Delete + Re-add the Flows backs even if there aren't any Premium connections in the Flow/s.

There is an method of removing unwanted connections that persist inside your app but it involves messing around with the JSON of the app code - not something I'd prefer to be doing ... (search the forums for this method, I no longer have the link - sorry).

Thank you guys for the help.

I ended up create another flow from scratch and restore an old version old my power apps (before the first version of the flow was included).
Sadly, I lost every modification I made. But now my applications isn't premium anymore, and my flow has been added to the app.
