Flow Tidbits - What is the max limit of Flow creation

  • Article

Hello All,

Here are some quick rule to explain it very clearly on how the limits work:

  1. If creating Solution flows the limit is unlimited (If you do not see that tab then see this article) this is what we recommend as a best practice and recommend you take this path to create all flows in the future.
  2. If creating flows under My Flows tab (Includes Team and Business Process flows) then there is a warning set at 250, you can contact support to  increase to 500 and at some point in the future they plan to increase max to 600.  NOTE: Licensing has no impact on these limits.

You can read more about the solutions here

Next question was changing ownership using PowerShell you can write a script based on this example:

NOTE:   1) These PowerShell modules are in Preview and can change often and dramatically, 2) You cannot remove original owner
