Moving solution from dev to staging/prod causing app to be flagged as premium

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 59

Hi,

 

I have been building a solution with a canvas app and several flows using SharePoint as the data source. In the dev environment the app is showing as a standard licence. When i export the solution and import into the other environments its showing as premium.

 

When building the app I experimented with a solution environment variable to see if I could build in rules to make the app and flows more aware of the environment they were in. When i realised it was a premium function I removed it from the solution and removed the connection within the app.

 

Since then I can't deploy the app into our production environment without it becoming premium even though its fine in the development environment.


I have seen some threads about exporting and looking at the code, I had a glance over the files and saw nothing about any CDS connections in them.

 

Any thoughts?

    Hi @BenAu ,

     

    Do you mean after deleting premium connectors from your app, when add the app to a solution then move it to a new environment the app's License designation would become premium?

     

    If so, as per the solution in this thread and the testing I made as well, you could:

    1\ In your dev environment, edit your app, in the studio select File -> Save as to save a copy to your computer.

     

    2\ Import this msapp package to the dev environment, create a new app.

     

    3\ Add the imported app into the solution then move it to prod envrionment.

     

    Hope this helps.
