Hi,

when trying to use New-AdminPowerAppEnvironment, I am getting an error:

New-AdminPowerAppEnvironment -DisplayName AutomatedTest -EnvironmentSku Trial -LocationName canada

Code : BadRequest
Description : Bad Request
Error :
Errors :
Internal : System.Net.HttpWebResponse

The same error happens with or without a call to Add-PowerAppsAccount:

$pass = ConvertTo-SecureString "<PASSWORD HERE>" -AsPlainText -Force
Add-PowerAppsAccount -Username <USER HERE> -Password $pass

Other cmdlets seem to be working. For example, I can use Get-AdminPowerAppEnvironmentLocations without any problems.

Thanks,

Alex

Are you working with a Trial license? Although the Trial license is a P2 license you can't create additional environments if you are using a Trial account.

Hi

Is PowerShell the preferred method for automating creating environments, I have been attempting to do this via the Power Platform tooling in VSCode without much success😫

Microsoft PowerPlatform CLI Version: 1.14.2+g7205df7 Usage: pac [admin] [application] [auth] [canvas] [help] [org] [package] [paportal] [pcf] [plugin] [solution] [telemetry] // connect to the default environment pac auth create --url https://org123456.crm11.dynamics.com pac admin create -n "Test" -r "United Kingdom" -t "Sandbox" -c "British Pound" -d "Test"
