Appflow with cordova detects capacitor instead in build - node.js

Question

I have a project that used to use capacitor but now uses only cordova.
Upon versioning it to a Commit in my Ionic Dashboard, I attempted to create a Build from this Commit and received this error

What makes this error so odd is that every mention of 'capacitor' has been removed from my project including the capacitor.config.json file.
My ionic.config.json setup looks like this
"integrations": {
"cordova": {}
},
On top of that, I removed the package-lock.json and /node_modules and reinstalled, and then I ionic cordova platform add/remove ios & android and then 1ionic cordova prepare` ios & android.
Still, I receive this error.
Could anyone help me remove capacitor from my Build process in ionic dashboard

Answer 1

This is a known issue from Ionic and the solution is to contact Ionic and have them properly switch the account to capacitor or cordova. Solution 2 is that you need to create a new project on ionic with cordova or capacitor and then clone your project to it.
