One of our flows started failing recently. We identified the sign-in log entry, where the following info is available:

According to our current understanding, here's what happened:

  1. An external built the flow on a VDE / VM, 
  2. by using a service account,
  3. a long time ago (months back), 
  4. the connection was automatically refreshed successfully for all this time (months), since there was no password expiration
  5. the VDE / VM was disabled in our AD tenant on 31.01.2024
  6. the flow started failing

The flow fails in the Send an HTTP request to SharePoint action.


We checked the connection and it seems valid (there's no warning / fix the connection message).

 

If there's a possibility that the flows will start failing every time a device used to BUILD the flow is disabled, then I am really concerned about using flows for any solutions I develop from now on. The exception handling, maintenance and monitoring measures to prevent failures become ridiculous.

    I have recently had the same problem (though it was my old laptop which got disabled).  A solution to this that does not require me to keep a device floating arround would be appreciated.

    I ran into this issue today after getting a new workstation and my old workstation that all my flow connections were created on was deactivated. The fact that the connections are somehow tied to a device is mind boggling to me, so many of my flows broke today.
