Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
The co-owner changed the connection references used by the flow
If the co-owner changed the connection references, the flow may lose access to required data sources or services, causing failure. Option A is wrong because flow runs do not require manual approval unless specifically configured. Option B is wrong because the user remains the owner and retains ownership; co-owner modifications do not transfer ownership. Option D is wrong because a co-owner cannot delete the original owner's permissions; the original owner retains full control.
