Power Platform CoE – SYNC HELPER – Apps

Recently I’ve got alot of “CoE Starter Kit Sync Flows errors”, especially the
SYNC HELPER – Apps

You’ll see the following error details:

Action ‘Get_App_from_Inventory’ failed
Entity ‘admin_app’ With Id = “” Does Not Exist

The failing actions is the “Upsert App record”, as far as I can see this action add a newly “discovered” app to the table “PowerApps Apps“.

{

  “error”: {

    “code”: “0x80040217”,

    “message”: “Entity ‘admin_Maker’ With Id = “” Does Not Exist”,

    “@Microsoft.PowerApps.CDS.HelpLink”: “http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=398563&error=Microsoft.Crm.CrmException%3a80040217&client=platform”,

    “@Microsoft.PowerApps.CDS.InnerError.Message”: “Entity ‘admin_Maker’ With Id = “” Does Not Exist”

  }

}

As it turn out the ‘”admin_Maker’ With Id = “” Does Not Exist”” is “SYSTEM” account. In our environment this error started about, 28.09.2023, before this date the flow runs fine, and the new app is added with a blanc “owner” if it’s SYSTEM.


Right now I don’t have a fix, but because it’s more or less “SYSTEM” apps that is not normal “maker” related, I’ve choosen to ignore it. There is a discussion going on about this issue here
