Undo Button Messes Up Connectors and Discards All Your Unsaved Changes

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi,

I was working on a Power Automate flow for several hours (I guess I did not save at any point) when I decided to press the "Undo" button. This, rather catastrophically, caused an error on all of my actions saying "Some of the connections are not authorized yet. If you just created a workflow from a template, please add the authorized connections to your workflow before saving." There was no way to fix this, and no way to save my changes. I tried checking my connections on the Connections page, but they were all active and signed in. I was stuck, with the only option being to exit, which would discard all my unsaved changes.

So, because of the "Undo" button, I lost hours worth of work. This could have easily been less disastrous if there was an auto-save or recovery feature, or if the app allowed you save a flow with connection errors. I suppose I should have saved more often, but the fact this application allows something like this to happen is terrible.

Has anyone else had this happen? Was anyone able to fix it?

    Hi @Anthony_M ,

     

    I've faced this couple of times. It's random how this behaves and undo doesn't work as expected. 

    It's best to say that keep saving your flow frequently. This will help you as if any wrong move and clicking undo doesn't help then quickly refresh full page to get back to your last saved point.

     

    This is how I prevent losing my work.

    Hope this helps
