Hi All,

I am trying to export a canvas app and import it to work locally but I am getting the below error while importing it:

Child Flows is only supported for Flows stored in a solution.

The flow where this gets stuck has child flow and both child and the parent flow are within the solution.So, I don't understand the error. Please let me know the resolution as this is blocking us.

@Mira_Ghaly : I face this issue when I try to import the canvas app only after export and not the solution. I tried to export it after going to apps as well as from solution.

I understand that you are facing the issue during import that's why I am asking you to try adding required components to see what might be missing, re-export and import again.
