Hi, is there a way to update an existing custom API swagger definition? The only option I see is to delete and re-create!

Hi,
The safe way to update a Json/Swagger file would be to delete the connection and add a new one, it is by design.
If you want to update an existing Swagger file, I suggest you submit a feedback from PowerApps studio.
You can submit a feedback via the smile icon in the below:

Hi, thank you for your reply! Ok....but when we delete an active connection, it does affect the apps/flows that use it. So does this mean that I have to go around and re-do the connection on all my apps/flows? I am not sure I understand the motive for designing it this way! Thanks.
We understand your frustration that have to re-connect the custom APIs in all the existing Apps/flows after updating an API definition. However, the current situtaion is by design. My suggestion is to submit your idea in the PowerApps idea forum here:
https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/PowerApps-Ideas/idb-p/PowerAppsIdeas
Or you can submit feedback as Wendy suggested. The purpose for this is to notice our production team about your concern, so they would be able to put all the feedback into consideration in the further release. Thanks for your understanding and help.
Best Regards,
