Power apps managed dependencies

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2
I have an application in one tenant's environment and I want to duplicate it into a new tenant with a new environment.
I tried duplicating the relevant solutions but got into a problem when trying to find the managed solutions we use.
These are the following managed solutions I have in my current tenant:
The problem is I have no idea from where I can get them into my new tenant's environment since a lot of them were imported a long time ago by a different power apps developer.
I'm new to power apps developing so I'm having problem understanding where I might find those managed solutions so I can import them also into my new environment.
I added also a file with screenshots if the dependencies we're missing.

    To duplicate your Power Apps application to a new tenant, you need to migrate all managed solutions along with their dependencies.
    Step 1: Go to Power Apps Maker Portal (make.powerapps.com) → Solutions and note down all managed solutions used in your app.
    Step 2: In the old tenant, navigate to Solutions, select each managed solution, and export it as a managed solution file (.zip).
    Step 3: Find the Source of Solutions 
    Step 4: In the new tenant, go to Solutions, click Import, and upload the exported solution files. If there are missing dependencies, you may need to install prerequisites manually.
    Step 5: After importing, check for errors in the solution. If dependencies are missing, install them before re-importing the solutions.
    Step 6: Reconfigure Environment Settings-Update Dataverse connections, Power Automate flows, environment variables, and custom connectors to match the new environment.
    Step 7: Test & Validate Run App Checker to find issues and do a User Acceptance Test (UAT) to ensure everything works.
     
    If this needs to be done frequently, use Power Platform CLI (PAC CLI) or ALM Accelerator to automate solution migration.

    Hi,
     
    Let me add some more information on last answer provided. Your dependencies are coming from a PowerPages solution. You can start with installing PowerPages on your target environment and revalidate dependencies.

    When you want to deploy your application in another environment, you need to work with Solutions. Before behind able to deploy anything, you need to regroup everything related to your app into a solution. Get to: make.powerapps.com. Then,

     
    You will have a brand new solution in unmanaged solutions tab:
     
    Then, you need to:
    -Add every components related to your app (Application, tables needed in your app with their relationship tables, workflows, flows, etc);
    -Publish all customization;
    -On '...' beside your new solution, you select 'Export solution':
    -Make sure you let the 'search for dependencies' process validates everything is ok (if not, add dependencies components needed);
    -Choose between managed and unmanaged exportation (depending on the environment you want to deploy, you can simply export as unmanaged and managed, which is a good practice);
    -Wait for the file to be created;
    -Download the file;
    -Go to your target environment;
    -Select 'Import solution':
    -Then, go pick your newly package file (<solutionName>.zip);
    -Follow steps on the screen;
    -If you get error, download the log file and apply fix and go back to step 2 (add component to your solution);
    -If it works, simply click on 'Publish all customization' if you are on a managed environment.

    Basta!

    I hope it helps!

    Thanks for the answers!
    But the things you suggest doing are not possible in the old tenant - because I'm not the publisher and the solution was uploaded as managed solution, I can't simply export and import it like an unmanaged solution.
    If you know where I can download those solution that would be very helpful because I don't seem to find them.

    Hi again!
     
    Ok, let me suggest something off the map. You can download your managed solution and transform it into unmanaged solution modifying a value inside XML file. If you have no more solution, you can try it since it is to transform it to unmanaged solution (no big impact). It is not 100% proof, but it works for me once:

    file: Open .zip exported file and edit "solution.xml"

    modification -> change value 1 to 0 to "Managed" property:

     
    Then, save it and recompress to .zip. Now, import that .zip file into your unmanaged environement.
     
    I hope it helps!
