Owner flows/apps being moved under Shared with me tab, and will never move back

Posted on by 14 Microsoft Employee

It seems that if you are the owner of a flow and share/add a co-owner, it moves it under the Shared with me tab. Even if you remove all users it is shared with, it will never move back to the "my" flows tab. This is the same for apps. Support says this is by design, but it makes no sense to me. If I am the owner of the flow, it should always stay under the my flows, and then if I share it, it should remain there for me, and show under the shared with me tab for the person(s) I shared it with. Additionally, if I remove all users/co-owners, it should move back to the my flows tab instead of the shared with me. I don't understand this behavior. They seem to have a property that indicates it is shared, but no way to change it or clear it in Power Shell. If you do get-adminflow, then drill down into internal, then properties, there is a field called sharingType, and if shared it has coowner as the value, and if not shared, it is not populated. Seems like the filtering could easily be changed, or the values that appear to cause the filtering. 

 

This is a poor user experience to have their flows moved even though they are the owner, and to never move back even after sharing them has been removed.

    Did you have a question?  That has been the way Power Apps and Power Automate have always worked.

     

    It works that way because Its easy to make the move to the shared when you share it the first time. But there isn't a specific entry associated with the app that lists who its shared with. So its more difficult to determine that you are the only owner left when another owner is removed. So I don't think you will see it change.

    Not unless anyone knows of a way to move them back. Apologies, I thought I posted this in the feedback thread.

    I have the same issue, I never shared flows with anybody else but two weeks ago I could only find my own flows in the Shared with me tab.  New flows are in the Cloud flows tab.

    As the original post says, if you add someone as a co-owner that is the same as sharing the flow with them.

    Hello Pstrork1, I did not share these flows. Two weeks ago I had more than 10 personal flows, now I only see them in the Shared with me tab!

    Did you give anyone co-owner access? Or did the admins take co-owner access? If neither of those is true then you should open a support ticket with Microsoft.
