How to restore a flow from a backup to another environment Tuesday, September 13, 2022 10:00 AM Toni Pohl In the previous article, we showed and described two flows to backup and restore a flow. This works well when the flow's connections are still in the same environment. But what about restoring a flow in a different environment? This is a typical use case for "moving" flows from a source environment to a target environment, such as from the development environment to the productive or department environment.

Azure Logic Apps Toolbox 7-Resolve issues with the SharePoint Connector Thursday, March 11, 2021 10:45 PM Toni Pohl Using SharePoint Online (SPO) and Azure Logic Apps helps to automate processes. For a project, we have created some workflows with Azure Logic Apps that monitor changes to an SPO list or document library for approvals and other document workflows.

We struggled with this behavior and found an unexpected workaround.
