Error when importing a PowerApps Package

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 1,302

Hi

 

Recently, becuase it was working fine before, when importing a package, I am getting an error because PowerApps wants to import a flow (which it does not need to because it has not changed) and this fails "user <Guid> does not have permissions to update <Guid>".  So the import does not happen.

 

1) can I stop the import trying to import a flow which has not changed. ?

2) How can I get around this issue (I currently get round it by using a differtent name for the flow).?

 

THanks

    Hi @NigelP,

     

     

    1) No, this is not possible. You can delete the flow from the app, but you cannot prevent to import the flow but still import the app.

    2) You are getting this error because that the user account is not the owner of this flow. You can share the flow with owner permission to get around this.

     

    Regards,

    Mona

    Hi @v-monli-msft

     

    Thanks for responding.

     

    2) I am the owner of the flow as I am the only person who knows how to create them !

     

    I will try and remke myself the owner on the flow.

     

    Regards
