Flow cannot be installed - Location based trigger
Hello,
Whenever I create a flow based on the Location based trigger, I receive the error "Flow cannot be installed':
Does anybody have the same issue? I tested some flows like this a month ago and perfectly worked!
Thanks in advance.
Hi Ferran-Chopo,
Same error in multiple tenants. I'm guessing its an issue on their end.
I hope this helps.

I also have the same problem. I am attempting to use the built-in workflow:
"Post to a channel when a webhook request is received"
Upon testing the workflow I get the error: Flow '<UNIQUE_ID>' cannot be installed. with no further information as to what went wrong.
Please advise Microsoft...
looks like it's still giving the error. The connector shows in preview as well. Although in preview, I figured MS would put out something that at least works.
Hi,
Just checking if you're seeing this error when you try testing the flow? Or you can't save it due to the error? I've seen this in testing, because for the geofence trigger you must test by actually triggering it physically (entering or leaving the area). I agree that the error message is very unclear on that point.
If you're not near the area you wish your flow to trigger on, you could temporarily create a small nearby area for testing purposes.
Does this help you...?
Sandy Ussia I'm seeing the error when testing the flow, not when saving it. In any case, a year ago or so it worked liked a charm, even when testing it in a different area other than my current location. I agree with you I could test it in my current location using my phone, but I don't thinks that is a final solution for this issue.
Thank you anyway!
Still has the same error after more than a year.
I guess this is not so high on their list.
Go MS you can do it.
Found some extra info
Apparantly this has or has not been released yet.

Norman Young, I'm also seeing the same issue. I have a Location action followed by a post to Teams channel. Interesting after 1+ months, this hasn't been resolved.
Hello thekurteichler
I received some support by Microsoft on this issue, and it is due to the rollout of the trigger in all tenants (previouslu, it was in preview). So, by now it should work.
Hope it helps!
Ferran-Chopo Haven't seen it. Maybe see if you have a connector for it and remove it?
Anyway, best place might be to ask on official flow forum here: Microsoft Flow Community - Power Users Community
