How to remove Connection References

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 42

Hi 

 

I created a few solutions and imported some existing flows into the solutions. This has changed how the connections displayed in the flow design page when I assign/edit the connections to actions - they are now displayed as connection reference names, instead of the connection names. 

 

This is confusing and I've decided to delete those solutions but it does not change how the connections displayed.

 

How can I remove all the connection references so they all show as connection names again?

    Do you want to change the Connection reference name in Solution?

    Ideally I want to remove the Connection references at all. I've deleted all my solutions but the connections references remain for all my connections. I cannot seem to be able to rename the connection references neither with the solutions deleted?

    Have you managed to find a solution? 
    I agree that it is rather confusing.

     

    Only when it comes to unmanaged solutions you can delete connection references when entering the solution, clicking the three dots and clicking "Delete from this environment". Sometimes though I found it that this has sync issues and if I would delete the connection reference from Power Apps directly (middle click on the connection reference) it lasts if that makes sense.
