New Employee Access to PowerApps

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello,

 

We have a new employee. What steps are needed for the new employee to be able to run the already-developed PowerApps apps? They will not be developing. Please note that we have three PowerApps environments and they will only need access to the PRODUCTION environment.

 

Thank you in advance for your attention.

    One correction.  You don't need to add the new employee to the default production environment.  Every employee has access to that environment.  Its hard coded into the environment and can't be changed.  For any other environment you need to add the new employee.

    Hi @Anonymous ,

    Firstly, the new employee need a license of PowerApps to run apps.

    You could buy him license according to your demands.

    Here's a doc about licecnse for your reference:

    Secondly, you need to add the new employee's account to your talent.

    Here's a doc about it for your reference:

    Thirdly, you need to give the new employee the permission of running apps in PRODUCTION environment.

    You could set it in the PowerApps admin platform.6252.png

    Please notice that if you have apps connected with Common Data Service, remember to give the new employee the premission of Common Data Service.

    1) You won't need to do anything to add them to the Production environment.  All users have access to that environment by default.  You would need to add them to any other environment they need access to.

    2) You need to make sure they have a PowerApps license.  This is a sub-Sku for the regular Office 365 license, like E3, so if they have been assigned that license then they should have a PowerApps license.

    3) You need to share any apps with them that they need to be able to run. If the Apps were originally shared using an AAD security group then you would just need to make them a member of the security group.

     

    That should be all that's required.
