What are the steps to import a power apps solution with Canvas app using visual studio code

Posted on by 2

I have cloned a solution locally. The solution contains a Canvas app. I'm attempting to make a change inside Canvas app within visual studios code and import solution into Dataverse using the Power Platform cli. When I make a change to a file inside the Canvas app such as a label text in the record.fx.yaml file and perform a "dotnet build" the change is not included in the zip file. I noticed there is an msapp file that exists from the initial clone. Even when I perform "pac solution pack" with processCanvasApps this still does not update the msapp file. So, what would be the steps to perform an import? Do I first pack the canvas app? If so what happens when I have several canvas apps inside one solution?  

 

I have seen this video but does not dive deeper into what to do when solutions contains canvas apps. I have done everything is this video. Power Platform CLI Exposed: Solutions - Bing video
