Hi @sukhmeetb thanks for raising this issue. When users open the designer usually, we try to find the logic app project root based on the following 3 things

• There is a local.settings.json file in the root folder
• There is a host.json file in the root folder
• The host.json file in the root folder has a extensionBundle property like this one:
  "extensionBundle": { "id": "Microsoft.Azure.Functions.ExtensionBundle.Workflows", "version": "[1.*, 2.0.0)" }

If your logic app project is in a multi-root workspace usually a dropdown menu will be prompted to enter the right logic app project root.

Is there any chance you can verify if none of the prior 3 requisites are met?
