You don't have permission to create a site in this environment

Hi,

 

I am trying to test PowerPages but it seems that I can't create any page.

The screenshot says: "You don't have permission to create a site in this environment. Choose another environment or contact the administrator to request permission". I tried the solution to this issue: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Discussions/Unable-to-create-a-site/td-p/1599266 but it doesn't work for me. My admin created a new environment but I can only see the default one. Is there anything I can do to solve this?

    Hi @olmichal 

    Don't worry. If your admin has created an environment for you.  Make sure you have a System administrator or System Customiser role for that environment. 

     

    If it is enabled for you it will take 30 - 60 minutes to reflect. 

     

    If the above solution not helping you. Then try the following steps. 

    Pre: Use incognito window 

    1. https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-nz/developerplan/

    2. Choose the "Existing user? Add a dev environment" 

    3. Provide your org email id. 

    4. Choose country and click finish 

    5. You will get a new developer environment in your org.

     

    Note: If your org has restricted you from creating an environment then please signup for Office 365 E5 trial or dev Then follow the above steps.

     

    Hope it helps.

    Hi, 

    I am getting the same error "You don't have permission to create a site in this environment". 

     

    Steps already tried 

    1) Microsoft Power Pages | Microsoft Power Platform and signed in , it creates another environment in my test tenant but then portal creation fails with the above error. 

    2) I tried elevating the access for the logged in user in the new created environment to System admin and Customiser but did not helped 

    3) I tried https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-nz/developerplan/ , it takes to the same default contoso enviornment with no option. 

     

    Why the enviornment creation are so limited for developer options. Please help
