Power Apps Best Practices

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Good morning, I would like to ask you some information about best practices in Power Apps development. Is it possible to create development and test apps in a production environment, assigning them specific names? Is it considered as a best practice? I could have, for instance, my-app (production app), my-app-dev (development app) and my-app-test (test app).

Thanks,

Kind regards,

Giovanni.

I don't know if it's the best practice or not. But, that's how i work. I have 2 apps. One for development and one for production. I create separate database and everything for dev app and when everything works fine i push same changes to the production app.

Hi @Anonymous ,

My suggestion is to create multiple environments.

The developer environment is used to develop apps.

The sandbox environment is used to test the apps.

Use production app in production environment.

So, you could create apps in developer environment .

When you need to test apps, you could export them from the solution and import them into the sandbox environment.

The same thing you could do If you want to have one app in production.

If you create multiple similar apps in the same environment, it is more difficult to maintain them.

Best Regards,
