Application Lifecycle Management

The Power Apps and Automate Architecture Series, presented by Power CAT, will prepare you for upcoming complex Power Platform projects.
This series will provide your architects and developers with the tools and best practices to run successful Power Apps projects of high complexity.
In this session, you'll learn how to use Solutions and Azure DevOps to ensure your apps are protected in source control and your apps can be automatically deployed to other environments like test and production.

Really good overview - it's great to see the separation of the export to source-control and the build/pack/export pipeline - this is a pattern that really works well in practice where you have Low-Coders making changes to an environment. You can schedule the export solution pipeline and check in the changes to a working branch - then use a pull request to merge changes into the development branch where the build pipeline runs.

Hey Scott, what about the push to use Managed Solutions???

[@vs007mac]

Fantastic insight into ALM, thank you. Great to see that we can use Azure DevOps in ALM. Also nice to hear that there was no umming and arring and overly repeated "You know" and "Urrgghhh" sentance fillers in the presentation. Nice, clear and concise presentation. Thank you.

Thanks for the great tutorial - really, each power platform specialist must see. It would be very useful to add a video how to automate patches deployment. Shall we create a pipeline per patch?

Great video. Thank you, Phil.
Any news on the Canvas/Flow connections deployment feature?
It is a real bummer that App Deployment requires user action(often involving code modification) to restore connections and can not be handled via App user SPN. Moreover, that deployment user should remain active otherwise connections that he created will fail.
Imagine explaining to the customer's security officer why do you need a licensed, shared, non-MFA-protected admin account on the production environment.

Great video, thanks for that! Could you import the solution in devops also to a whole different tenant?

[@Topness]

Yes you can import to a different tenant if your service connections are configured for it.

16.56 The Power Platform Checker setup in Service connection would be useful to see?

Great Video, i am using service principle for authentication, what can be the script(in extract solution to source control) pipeline in that case?
