Why it happens
The Dataverse environment that stores the flow only allows members of a security group. The account used for the Power Platform consent is not a member, so Microsoft cannot add it to the environment. Rencore Governance skips the details of the affected flows, and the rest of the scan continues.
How to fix it
- Ask an administrator to add the consent account to the group named in the error.
- Wait for the next scan. It collects the missing flow details.
