"New Designer" option misising when Edit Any flow

Posted on by SP-22062313-0
Hi Team,
 
Initially, there was an option to switch between the classic and new designer for flow editing. However, I am no longer able to see this option in the edit flow window, and all flows are opening in the classic designer. 
 
 
Thanks, 
Supriya Paigude.

    1. Create a New Flow Instead of Editing an Existing One

    • Go to My Flows → + New Flow → Automated cloud flow or any other type.

    • In some tenants, new flows default to the new designer, while editing old ones still uses Classic.

    • This is a quick way to see if your environment supports the new designer.

     2. Use a Different Environment

    • Some users report that in default environments, they only see Classic, while in developer or custom environments, they get the new designer.

    • Try switching environments (top-right dropdown in Power Automate).

      • Example: Switch from “Default” to a “Developer” environment if you have one.

     3. Enable Modern Designer via Environment Settings (If Admin)

    If you’re an admin, check:

    1. Go to Power Platform Admin Center → https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com/

    2. Choose the environment.

    3. Go to Settings > Features.

    4. Look for something like “Modern flow designer” or “Modern app designer” toggle.

    5. Enable it, if available.

    Riyaz_riz11 response is rubbish, generated by AI, full of false statements and references to non-existent settings!

    This is a fairly common issue that eventually passes on its own. You can wait a few days for it to pass, or you can open a ticket with Microsoft through the Admin Center, though in my experience Microsoft will drag their feet until the issue passes anyway.
     
    Folks have been reporting this issue for a long time now and we do not have an explanation from Microsoft yet.
