Hi all,

I encoutered a weird issue: Updating a connection reference within the same solution did not update the actual sql server connection.

When i update the connection reference from using TestDb to QADatabase within the same solution(i am in dev environment), i can see the flow's connection reference being updated as below, showing the QAdatabase name. However, when i run the canvas app, it is still querying the data from my TestDb?! This also happens to my sql table which i connected inside the canvas app through the data tab on the left. Any thoughts? Does this have to do with the connection reference saving asynchronously, outlined in this documentation under the Limits section.

P.S. I am changing the connection reference directly for convience purpose only, i do understand that in actual practice, i should export the entire solution into another environment and redefine the connection reference there. However, i am still in the early stage development so i don't want to bother with exporting/importing.

Thanks for your time.
