MS Flow and SharePoint Connections limitation

I have a couple of active MS flows for SharePoint.
Today while creating a new flow I got the error "Request to XRM API failed with error:
'Message: Connection reference 'new_sharedsharepointonline_a9cda' is already associated to '16' flows. Please create a new connection reference to use on this flow. Code: 0x80040216 InnerError:'.
Can anyone guide me what is the solution for this?
Soluzione
As far as I know, while connection references are in preview, one connection reference can only be used within a maximum of 16 flows.
If the same connection needs to be used in more than 16 flows, then create another connection reference with a connection to the same connector. There is no limit to the number of actions in each flow that can be associated with the connection reference.

This is not an error but a limitation for using same connection across multiple flows. One single connection can be referenced in 16 flows only, which means if i create a connection SharePoint Connection using adb@xyz.onmicrosft.com it can be used in 16 flows. If i create 17th flow and try using this connection it won't allow you to use it. To fix this go to connections and create a duplicate connection and use it in your flow.
