Managing and administrate my environment in API

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by liranelisha Microsoft Employee

I see the Online Management API is deprecated, and the suggested way administrate my environment is currently in PowerShell script.

however, i wanted to make sure if there is another way (a different API maybe) to do so.

i prefer to use API since it gives me more freedom to use it inside a code flow, instead of opening and waiting for another process to run in the background

So is there another way to use some API to administrate (create, edit, delete) environments that is supported by Microsoft?

    Hi @liranelisha, Not sure if you found out yet, but here are different ways up to now...

    1.  Azure DevOps Build Tools: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/alm/devops-build-tools
      (there's also some for GitHub)
    2. PowerShell as you mentioned: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powerapps.administration.powershell/?view=pa-ps-latest
    3. Power Automate: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/wp-task-automation-flow 

    Hope this helps!

    thank you, as you probably know the powerAutomate for admin is in preview still, but it seems good enough so i might use this. in the meanwhile i used the powershell, though it is very limited and document is low (i've contacted the team about it). thank you for your comment, this is a good summary of ways to provision one's environment!
