Issues with editing the Cloud Flow in the new designer

Hi,

I am currently halfway through video 10 in the Learning Path about cloud flows, but I am experiencing issues with being able to edit my cloud flow. I am not able to edit it in the new designer mode – and it is not possible to edit using the old one. I have tried to restart everything, refresh (CTRL+F5), and tried to access the new designer multiple ways. I have not had any luck so far…
Here are some of the error messages I get:

Thanks in advance.

Sorry to hear you are having flow edit issues.

Just to double check, I see in the second screenshot the error suggests to remove draft changes. Have you tried pressing that button and were you able to edit the flow after that?

Thank you for answering :-)
Yes, I tried, and I was able to edit the flow. However, when I tried to save, I was given an error message about an API error. Now, I am not even able to open the new designer anymore:

In the classic designer, I am not able to save/edit the flows, and I am not able to either in the PowerApps cloudflow editor...

Normally I would suggest to contact Microsoft support about this. But in your case you are learning to work with the Power Automate product, you are following a lesson, right?

Have you tried starting with a new blank/fresh flow? This way you should be able to complete your lesson and you don't have to spend troubleshooting this designer issue. And it is also a good way to check if it is related to only that specific flow or if it is a generic issue.

Based on the error message you posted, I would first try clicking the button Remove all draft changes when the error message appears. You'll lose your changes made in the new designer that were not published, but I think that should resolve your issue so you can edit in the old designer again.

@David_MA,

I already suggested to remove the draft changes in my first reply. And as far as I understand JP-19080707-0 already tried that and that caused the new error of the latest reply. So, that doesn't seem to solve the issue.
