Error in importing connection references

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 27
Hello,
One of my development environments was apparently auto-deleted and I need to import my solution to a new development environment. I expect to import this solution so that I can make changes to it's components and later export them to my production environment.
 
The issue is that when trying to import the unmanaged solution, there is an error with the detail: "Connections Re-establish connections to activate your solution, 3 updates needed" There are indeed three connection references in the solution: one for Azure Key Vault, one for Azure Blob storage and one for a custom connector.
As I remember from the training materials and previous experience, upon importing a solution the wizard should prompt me to sign in again to those connections or show a green checkmark if the connector works.
For a fraction of a second some kind of login prompt did appear (screenshot named signin, attached), but then the error message (screenshot named error, attached)appears.
 
I have tried with different browsers (Edge, Chrome) and deleting the browser cache in Chrome.
I have tried making a separate solution of the connection references that I managed to export from my production environment.
I have tried recreating the connection references in the new development environment with the same logical name.
I have tried giving my user all the possible security roles.
Service health doesn't show any issues.
When I tried importing the solution in the classic view I got the error 80040375, which seems to indicate that the package is too large. The size of the zip is 36 KB.
I consulted a previous post which said another user had a similar issue and it was just a temporary issue at Microsoft: https://community.powerplatform.com/forums/thread/details/?threadid=3d397270-3179-4136-beae-6fc9660f1206

    HI,
     
    Can you go into that environment and manually add connections to verify it works for you. Create exactly what you had before in the old environment.
    Then try again and let me know please if it works. It could just be intermittent, but want to verify permissions or if anything is goofy in the environment.

    Hi Michael,
     
    Thanks for your reply. I am able to create connections manually in the new environment:
    I also tried uploading a solution containing connection references with the Power Platform CLI in VS Code, and it throws an unexpected error:
    When I try to upload via the browser there are various 404 and 403 errors in the console:

    Update:
    I can import non-Azure connectors via solutions. Probably the issue is in app registrations in Azure and not in Power Platform.
