This chapter introduces how Environments can used to separate your development, acceptance and production environment. It also explains how you configure environment security so that only approved users can create and manage environments.
Solutions are used by app makers and developers to package related customizations together so that they can be managed and deployed as a single unit. We will see what components can be added to a solution and how they are essentially the building blocks of your environment.
In this chapter you will learn about Connection References and Environment Variables and how they can be used to solve the issue of connecting to separate development/acceptance/production data sources without having to make major changes in a Power Automate Flow or Canvas App.
When developing larger apps and flows it is important to separate your development, acceptance and production environments. In this chapter your will learn how to implement ALM in the Power Platform. You will also see how to unpack Canvas app into Power Fx and store your source code in GitHub. From the source code you can reassemble your solutions and import them in your acceptance or production environments.
Pipelines in the Power Platform aim to democratize application lifecycle management (ALM) for Power Platform and Dynamics 365 customers. They bring ALM automation into the service in a manner that's more approachable for all makers, admins, and developers
