PAD Flows Disappearing

Posted on by Trevor_T

Hi,

I have lost all flows again! This appears to be an experience for many users.

I have seen several work arounds but these all involve considerable time to recover the lost flows particularly if there are many.

I have taken to making a text copy of the important flows so that I can recover if all else fails. But this too is a time consuming process.

Do we know what is causing this problem and are there likely to be any solutions in the near future.

Best wishes

Trevor

I am experiencing the same thing. Even if the flows are technically recoverable I cannot see users jumping through all those hoops every time this happens as an adequate solution.

Hi Trevor,

Thank you for reaching out. I understand how concerning it can be when your flows appear to be missing.

We have identified an issue that affects users who sign in to Power Automate for desktop using their personal Microsoft account, which prevents them from viewing their flows in the console. However, please rest assured that your flows are not lost; they are just not visible at the moment. This issue does not impact users who sign in with a work or school account.

Our team is actively working on a solution, and we will provide updates as soon as possible. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time. For more information and updates, please follow the main forum thread tracking this issue: https://community.powerplatform.com/forums/thread/details/?threadid=b5e78306-75a7-ef11-8a69-7c1e5266b018

Best wishes,
The Power Automate Team

Hi,

I am seeing a lot of posts like this and I just saw an update from a Microsoft Employee here.

Flows are not visible for users who sign in with their personal accounts
