Hi,

we have an issue with connection in a Cloud Flow to a Desktop Flow when we deploy the solution (managed) to another environment.

Here our configuration:

Dev environment with a cloud flow, which calls a Desktop Flow with a machine connection. It runs attended.
We have only one machine which runs the Desktop Flow.
We export the solution as managed and import it on the Prod environment. No error when importing it.

Every time after a deployment on prod we manually have to edit the cloud flow and create a new connection to the machine, which is strage. What we also do is to change the environment to Prod on the machine it self in the Desktop Flow App. It is cumbersome to do this every time on deployment.

Are we doing this correctly? Is on-premis data gateway the way to go instead of a machine connection? As I understood the machine connection is the new and prefered way to do it. Does the choosen environment in the Desktop Flow app need to be set to Prod before deployment?

Thanks for any tips and help.
