    Hi @alano444 ,

     

    As we known, Model-driven PowerApps are configured using the Dynamics 365 framework, but they are different.

    For instance, Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement offers customers, partners, independent software vendors (ISVs), and systems integrators (SIs), a powerful platform for building line-of-business applications. These applications are often referred to as Extended Dynamics 365 applications (xRM) applications because they leverage the relationship tracking capabilities beyond the typical customer relationship management (CRM) scenarios.

    However, Model-driven app is a component-focused approach to app development. Model-driven app design doesn’t require code and the apps you make can be simple or very complex.

    For more details of difference between D365 and Model-Driven Apps, please refer to this blog: Comparison of Dynamics 365 and Model-Driven PowerApp features

     

    Best regards,

    Sik
