Using Solutions to Migrate PowerApp to New Environment - How to differentiate

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 15

When creating a PowerApp, I create a solution to be able to manage the transfer of the application from a development environment to a production environment, using environment variables to update the data sources.  The issue I am running into is that, when looking for the application in Teams, I am finding both the prod and dev apps, with no differentiation between them.  Is there a way to differentiate a dev and prod solution in the naming, image, etc?  Any help is greatly appreciated

    Hi @jmaur769 ,

     

    I changed the name and icon of the App in the development environment.

    After ten minutes, it shows up in Teams.

    Thank you! This technically works, but when I export and import the solution into the production environment, the name of the app comes with it.  I can do that manual step after each import to change to add (dev), but wondering if theres an automated way to do this. Either way, this does technically do what I am looking for, so thank you!
