Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hey,

I have an environment with my company name, that my work created for me and next to the environment name -> (default).

First, what does it mean?

second, when I want to add things such entity or solution it won't let me (so I simply create d a new environment and import my app to the new one).

Thanks in advance.

    The documentation say:

    A single default environment is automatically created by Power Apps for each tenant and shared by all users in that tenant.
