Update of an Environment Variable

Hi all,

I don't know why but all of a sudden I've started seeing this notification inside my environments (both dev and prod):

When I click on the blue text, this is what I get:

I am using 4 environment variables inside one solution, but those variables contain values and there is no need for any update. I am also sure that notification is not related to my env variables as it says that I need to enter "Unique name of the solution the Dataverse Accelerator is working out of". Does anyone have any clue why I am being asked this?

Hi,
recently I created a new environment and the app Dataverse Acelerator was aprovisioned automatically. I don't know why.
And I am in your same situation, an enviroment variable is required.

These are apps that Microsoft introduce automatically in the environment without ask:

Hi @AlbertoCastro,

I've checked Apps inside my dev and prod environment and I can confirm the Dataverse Accelerator App is there as well, though these two environments exist for some time now. I can also confirm the app is created by the SYSTEM around the same time as yours (21h ago).

Tried to find something relevant on MS learn, but nothing regarding variable update.

I had a similar issue last week with the same variable and the same apps. It's reassuring to know I'm not alone in facing this challenge.

I just filled it in with "Dataverse Accelerator" and it's gone away. No downside to this as of yet.

I opened a support case about this topic and this is the answer:
The environment variable from the Dataverse Accelerator app, is optional. You don’t need to populate it.
On a later release, it will even be removed and this notification will not appear to you anymore.
As agreed I will proceed with the archive of this service request.
Issue:
Customer has noticed the Dataverse Accelerator app was installed and it is asking to populate an environment variable.
Solution:
This is optional, and there is no action required from the customer side.
On a later release this will not appear.
This app is to discover the latest feature set available.

Thank you @AlbertoCastro.
It looks like we all have same concerns towards MS and their actions. Once again thank you for finding out about this topic and sharing it here.
