Description

Recently, a third-party partner updated their API to a new version. We need to find and replace various JSON calls to align with the latest API version. Is there a way to search all steps within a flow for a string (Ex, 'true') and replace it with a new version (Ex, true)? We have about 60 flows that need to be updated. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are identified. Start by examining how the Power Platform VSCode extension represents and edits flow steps, then determine the scope and safety requirements for searching and replacing text across approximately 60 flows; done means the requested values can be updated consistently across all flow steps.
