Restore your Power Automate flow from a backup
Last week, an article was published on creating backups of Power Automate flows in the form of JSON files. This article takes it a step further and explains how to use the backup to restore a flow. The process involves triggering the flow from a selected file, extracting the necessary data from the JSON file (such as flow ID, flow name, flow definition, and connection references), and then using the "Update Flow" action to restore the flow. However, it's worth noting that there may be some issues with certain flows, particularly those involving the "HTTP request to SharePoint" action in the flow definition. Overall, this solution is simple and useful for restoring Power Automate flows.
