Gotta love those 'no physical compute environments' requirements. Keeps things nice and cloud-y. Connection reference is the way to go, no doubt about it.

I think removing the parent flow from the ContosoAutomations solution might be the best option to maintain consistency.

I'm with Junita on this one. Deleting flows and starting from scratch? What a waste of time. Connection reference for the win!

Haha, deleting the parent flow and starting over? What is this, amateur hour? A connection reference is definitely the way to go. Efficiency is key!

Deleting and recreating the flows is such a hassle. Who wants to do all that extra work? A connection reference is clearly the best option to meet the requirements.

I agree with Flo, it's important to keep all automations together.

A connection reference seems like the way to go here. It allows you to reference the external child automation without having to recreate it in the same solution. Keeps things nice and tidy.

That's right! Using a connection reference will allow you to link the external child automation to the parent automation without having to move it into the same solution.
