- Export and import your apps across environments with packaging. The preview of packaging is now available on web.powerapps.com. With packaging, you will be able to export an app as a package and import it into another environment. NOTE: Once the preview is over, you will be required to have a PowerApps Plan 2 trial or PowerApps Plan 2 paid license in order to access the packaging feature.
- Whats up friends?! In this video we are talking about exporting flows and importing them some place else! To see the solution video mentioned go here: https.
To extend and expand your flow's capabilities, you can migrate that flow from Microsoft Flow to Azure Logic Apps. You can export your flow as an Azure Resource Manager template for a logic app, deploy that logic app template to an Azure resource group, and then open that logic app in the Logic App Designer.

In our Microsoft Flow blog series, we have explored various topics related to Microsoft Flow and will keep on exploring more. In this blog will discuss about how to export and import Microsoft Flow in your Dynamics 365 environment. Steps to Export Microsoft Flow in Dynamics 365: 1. First, Login to.
Not all Microsoft Flow connectors are available in Azure Logic Apps.You can import flows that have equivalent connectorsin Azure Logic Apps. For example, the Button trigger, the Approval connector,and Notification connector are specific to Microsoft Flow.
OpenAPI-based flows exported from Microsoft Flow are currently not supported for deployment as logic app templates.
Prerequisites
- An Azure subscription. If you don't have an Azure subscription, sign up for a free Azure account.
- The flow that you want to export from Microsoft Flow
Export a flow
- Sign in to Microsoft Flow, and select My flows. Find and select your flow. On the toolbar, select the ellipses (...) button. Select Export > Logic Apps template (.json).
- Save your template to the location that you want.

Deploy template by using the Azure portal
- Sign in the Azure portal with your Azure account.
- On the main Azure menu, select Create a resource. In the search box, enter 'template deployment'. Select Template deployment (deploy using custom templates), and then select Create.
- Under Custom deployment, select Build your own template in the editor.
- From the Edit template toolbar, select Load file. Find and select the JSON template that you exported from Microsoft Flow, and select Open.
- After the editor shows the JSON, parameters, and resources in your template, select Save.
- Now specify these input parameters for the template:
- Azure subscription to use for billing
- Azure resource group
- Location for the Azure resource group
- Name for the logic app resource
- Location for the logic app resource, if different from the Azure resource group
- The name for any previously created connections that the logic app can reuseIf you're creating your first logic app, all connections are created as new, so you can accept the default names. Otherwise, you can specify the names for previously created connections, which you can use across multiple logic apps.
After you provide this information for the template, review and agree to the Azure Marketplace Terms and Conditions for creating the necessary Azure resources and billing your Azure subscription accordingly, and then select Purchase.Azure deploys your template as a logic app to your specified resource group. All logic apps that you migrate from Microsoft Flow are deployed in a disabled state. - Before you activate your logic app, authorize any new connections by following these steps:
- Open the logic app that you created. On the logic app's menu, select Logic app designer.Each connection that requires authorization shows a warning icon:
- For each step that requires an authorized connection, expand that step, and select Add new.
- Sign in to each service or provide the necessary credentials to authorize the connection.
- Save your logic app. When you're ready to activate your logic app, on the logic app's menu, select Overview, and then select Enable.
- To avoid running duplicate workflows, make sure that you deactivate or delete your original flow.
Deploy template by using Visual Studio
If you've set up Visual Studio with the prerequisites for creating logic apps, you can deploy your exported template from Visual Studio to Azure Logic Apps.
- In Visual Studio, open the template file that you exported from Microsoft Flow.
- In Visual Studio, create an Azure Resource Group project and select the Logic App template by following the steps in Quickstart: Create automated tasks, processes, and workflows with Azure Logic Apps - Visual Studio, for example:
- From Solution Explorer, open the LogicApp.json file, if the file isn't already open.
- Copy the contents from the exported template and overwrite the contents in the LogicApp.json file.
- Before you deploy your logic app, authorize any new connections by following these steps:
- Open the LogicApp.json shortcut menu, and then select Open With Logic App Designer.
- If prompted, select the Azure subscription and resource group that you want to use for deploying your logic app.After your logic app appears in the designer, any connections that require authorization show warning icons:
- For each step that requires an authorized connection, expand that step, and select Add new.
- Sign in to each service or provide the necessary credentials to authorize the connection.
- Save your solution before you deploy the logic app.
- In Solution Explorer, open the project shortcut menu, and select Deploy > New. If prompted, sign in with your Azure account.
- When prompted, confirm the Azure subscription, Azure resource group, and any other settings that you want to use for deployment, such as a parameters file to use for passing template parameter values, and then select Deploy.
- If the Edit Parameters box appears, provide the name for your logic app resource in Azure, and select Save.When deployment starts, your app's deployment status appears in the Visual Studio Output window. If the status doesn't appear, open the Show output from list, and select your Azure resource group. For example:If any connections in your logic app need input from you, a PowerShell window opens in the background and prompts for any necessary passwords or secret keys. After you enter this information, deployment continues.After deployment finishes, your logic app is published but isn't activated in the Azure portal.
- When you're ready to activate your logic app in the Azure portal, find and open your logic app in the Logic App Designer. On the logic app's menu, select Overview, and then select Enable.
- To avoid running duplicate workflows, make sure that you deactivate or delete your original flow.
