Error when trying to Share a Forms Pro Survey

I followed the instructing in this article to Share a Forms Pro Survey.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/forms-pro/share-survey-collaborate

But the other user (On the same tenancy, who also has Forms Pro license) just gets the following error:
"Sorry something went wrong
Please try again
This content is created by the owner of the form.....
Powered by Forms Pro...

    If you receive an error stating that your connection is invalid or there's a problem with the flow's trigger, you must:

    Open Power Automate.

    In the left pane, select Data > Connections.

    Search for the Microsoft Forms Pro connection and delete it.


    Note

    If you have created multiple connections for Microsoft Forms Pro, you must delete all of them.

    Select New connection to create a new connection.

    From the list of connections, search for Microsoft Forms Pro and select it.

    In the confirmation window, select Create, and then enter your credentials.

    Open the flow in which the error occurred.

    Go to the action causing the error. The connection you created is displayed.

    Select the connection from the list. The error will be resolved after selecting the connection, and the flow will work fine.

      Hi Smith_J
      Thanks for your reply.
      We are not getting an error with Flow.
      I am simply trying to share this Microsoft Forms Pro Survey with a colleague so that he can update it and the template email.
      So I am just hitting Share from the Form and copying the link so that he can edit the form and update the email.
      Any other suggestions?

      No, sorry Ericvde . It looks like it is happening to a few people. Sadly this is on a client tenancy so I can't easily log it as a support call as I don't have tenant admin rights. Hence my post here.

    RuthJ  - We are having this issue also. It occured after I shared the form with some other users within the tenancy.  One thing that sounds different to your situation is that I am the form owner and I am getting the error also.
