If core components are working and I've made modifications to the CoE in the Test Environment, is the best practice to push to Production via pipeline, or to Import the components and redo the modifications from scratch? Also, can I use the same Admin, Maker, and User M365 Groups, and the same Service Account between Test and Production environments?
Hi @R1449A,
To answer your specific questions:
Hope this helps!
Make sure you follow the guidelines about the customizations guidelines
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/guidance/coe/modify-components
We use Power Platform pipelines to deploy the customizations. Power Platform needs managed environments. You can use other options such as ADO or export/import managed solutions manually.
Follow the recommendations here for Variables
Yes, you can use the same service account..
Make sure, you don't do full inventory every time in development environment. If you Tenant is big then you will hit throttling limits.
Exclude the environments from inventory that doesn't need.

Hi,
I think that there is not a universal answer about this. It will depend that the customization that you have made, the tool that your organization uses to deploy solutions, etc
All are valids: pipeline, alm aceleratos, devops, github, include manually.
By other side, if in your test environment you have the variable production = no, you can re-use the groups.
