How to export my flow (cloud Flow) and import it to another instance?

Posted on by 80

Hi All,

Good day!

I create a flow (under Flows->Cloud flows) and it is not in a solution. I want to export it and import to another instance. Clicking the 'Export' button, there is only one option: 'Get Flow identifier'  and I can't see/find 'Package.zip'.

My question is: How to export my flow (not in a solution) and import it to another instance?

Thanks for your help!

Jane

    Hi Jane88,

    As you can see an official email from Microsoft support. Sorry if it does not make sense. Did you try to find export button with the newly created flow? It still the problem exist I suggest you to open support ticket.

    Hi Jane88,

    I am sure the Flow is in Solution that why you can't export. But go this way:

    Click  on menu bar ' Save as' button and make copy of flow. Than activate the copy of flow and try to export again. It must goes this way.

    Thanks

    Hi Jane88,

    Save as the flow with a similar name. Now open the newly created flow. It will show the export flow option there. I was having the same issue a long time ago and I follow the same steps to resolve it.

    If I answer your question then please mark it as verified.

    Let me know if I can provide you with more details.

    Thanks
