Hi Folks,
Does anyone know if there is a version of Developer Program - Microsoft 365 that includes Dataverse (CDS) capacity?
For example, to create new environments for creating model-driven apps.
Thanks,
Donal
Folks - quick update here.
It turns out that you can add a paid Power Apps per User subscription to the Dev Tenant, just like @dpoggemann suggested.
This gives you the starter 10Gb of capacity, which should be enough for a Dev Tenant.
See How to enhance your “dev tenant” to unleash the full potential of the Power Platform - Microsoft Tech Community for a post that @Gezeitenbrand wrote and I commented on.
Drew - thanks for that - especially the bit about the 10GB for a per user license.
This is what is missing from the Dev and CDX tenants - adding per user license trials does not trigger the 10Gb capacity allocation.
Hi @donalmc ,
Look at Power Apps Per App license, retail at $10 per user / month for up to 2 apps (model or canvas). The key thing here is your database capacity is only going to be 1 GB at the tenant level with incremental incremental 50MB per user, but if you purchase 1 Per User license you will get 10 GB at the tenant level. I usually recommend 1 per user at the $40 per month and the rest of the users at the per app / $10 per month to get the default 10 GB capacity + 50 MB for all additional users...
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Drew
Closest thing to what you are asking for is powerapps dev community plan https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/dev-community-plan
But apart from that not really. Usually you setup a trial start working, and then convert to paid subscription, and then add non-production instances as needed etc.
Hi @donalmc ,
There is also a community version you can use.
https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/communityplan/
This is only developer / learning based and not meant to share apps etc. but it does come with Dataverse capability.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Drew
Hi @donalmc,
Not that I am aware of. I have a Developer E5 Subscription that comes with Visual Studio Enterprise subscription through my organization.
You can create Trial environments that last 30 days though. Just create some users in the tenant and assign the Power Apps trial license. You can then create a Dataverse database with the Environment.
