Posted on by Derrick_Jeevan

Hi,

I created several flows in dev tenant. i want to move the flows to UAT enivorment using scripts ( automated deployment.).

According to my design, one workflow calls another calls using http url ( modular pattern).

Need to get the url of imported workflow using scripts.
Need to setup mail connection and SharePoint connection using scripts.

Is that possible in MS Flow ( Office 365 Product) using scripts or any automated approach ?

Kindly clarify.

Thanks

Derrick

Hi @Derrick_Jeevan,

Do you want to deploy Microsoft Flow automatically with scripts?

I afraid that it is impossible to deploy flows automatically with scripts in Microsoft Flow currently. If you want to deploy Microsoft Flows to different environment, you could consider manually export the flow and import it into different environment.

More details about exporting and importing Microsoft Flows across environments, please check the following article:

Export and import your flows across environments

In addition, if you would like this feature to be added in Microsoft Flow, please submit an idea to Flow Ideas Forum:

Best regards,

Kris

Hi @v-xida-msft

We have to resolve the connections and enable the flow after every solution import, if the solution contains flow. This is adding configuration overhead. It would be better if atleast connections and status of the flow persists on the environment after it is deployed first time.

Hi @Anonymous you can do a lot of things with the PowerShell commandlets which are available in the PowerShell gallery. The module you need to install is Microsoft.PowerApps.Administration.PowerShell, however just be aware that you will need a Per User (premium) license applied to be able to use these commandlets.

Hi @MattWeston365 thanks for your reply. I know lots of PowerShell commandlets are available in the PowerShell gallery. But I didn't find any of commands related to deployment of flow. If you give any example for automated deployment for flow that will be great for me thanks!.

I think now we have a solution for your issues now. But please note that the connections will be in the context of the user. Use deployment user as a service account , Please refer https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/alm/conn-ref-env-variables-build-tools
