No database capacity with Power Apps Premium License

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 70

I am developing a couple of Power Apps applications with Dataverse as a datasource. I have so far been on a developer plan and want to switch to a premium license to bring it to production. To do this I ideally want to create multiple production type environments so I can set up a deployment pipeline.

 

I am still fairly new to power apps licensing and find it quite confusing. For now my company has bought a single Power Apps Premium license through the Microsoft 365 admin center and assigned it to me. I read the current Power Platform Licensing Guide which tells me this would get me full dataverse access and the possibility to run unlimited custom applications.

 

Now when I try to create a production environment with a Dataverse data store in the Power Platform Admin Center it tells me two things.

I have admin rights and revoked my original Power Apps Plan 2 Trial license (leaving me with a Premium and Developer License) from my Microsoft account after seeing this message for the first time, but the message is still there. It also tells me there is not enough capacity. When I look at the capacity overview in the admin center I see the following:

This seems to indicate there is 0 database capacity and I believe 1GB is needed to create a production environment with Dataverse data storage. I was under the assumption that I would be able to create a production environment with a Power Apps Premium License. Is that not the case?

 

In the Licensing agreement, I have found the following regarding Dataverse capacity.

If I understand this correctly, doesn't this mean that a single license would give me the 10.25GB database capacity (adding the default and accrued values)?

 

Like I said I'm still new to the licensing and deploying applications in a production environment. Any help would be much appreciated.

 

-- Edit: Solved. As joe_hannes_col guessed, I had to wait a little longer for the license to kick in. It took 4 workdays in the end before the capacity from the license became available, but it works now as expected.

    Hello @MSchd,

     

    How much time has passed since the license was assigned to you? Changes typically do not affect Dataverse capacity immediately.

    You can also verify if the license was correctly assigned:

    To do this, navigate to https://make.powerapps.com, then click on the cogwheel in the top right corner, and select Plan(s):

    Thanks for your response. It was assigned yesterday morning. About 24 hours ago. I assumed that was long enough for it to take effect, but maybe I am too impatient. This is what it shows under plans:

    Hello @MSchd,

     

    Licensing looks good, you should have 10GB of capacity. I think you'll have to be patient a while longer 🙂

    In the meantime, you could use a Power Apps Developer license to create a developer environment that would not count towards your tenant's storage capacity: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/developer/plan

    Okay, that must be it than. Thank you for the help!

    Sure. Could you please report back if it works so others in the same situation know if this was the reason?

    Yes, will do! I will mark your answer as the solution if/when it works.
