Elevate my role to Environment Maker

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

In the process of sharing the app, i have added my email id as basic user. now my account cannot edit the solution including the app inside the solution. I need help to elevate my role from the previous status. I tried to check also the admin center but i no longer see the environment. any workaround solution for this without the IT/admin user.

    Hi,
    If your account has only the Basic User role, there is no supported way to self-elevate and edit the solution. App sharing only grants access to use the app; it does not grant maker or solution-editing permissions.

    You need an existing Environment Admin/System Administrator to assign the required role, typically Environment Maker and/or System Customizer, or System Administrator if appropriate. If the environment is no longer visible in the Power Platform admin center, your account likely no longer has admin access. In that case, please contact your IT/Power Platform administrator or raise a Microsoft Support request if no administrator is available.

    There is no supported way for a normal Basic User to elevate their own Dataverse security role. If you have retained a qualifying tenant-level administrator role, you may be able to use Microsoft's self-elevation capability. If you no longer have that role and the environment is no longer visible to you, an existing Power Platform/Dataverse administrator will need to restore your environment access and assign the appropriate role.

    For your specific requirement — editing the solution and the app inside it — I would ask for Environment Maker + System Customizer rather than immediately requesting full System Administrator, following least-privilege principles.

    Thank alot, really appreciate it. I thought this another workaround it by not involving the IT admin.
