Hi,

we have 3 instances. One production, one sandbox and one default. 

What is this instance of type "default" for? I can't remember, that I have created this one. I also can't delete it.

I have the same question (0)

    Hi,

    Thank you for your query,

    A single default environment is automatically created by Power Apps for each tenant and shared by all users in that tenant. Whenever a new user signs up for Power Apps, they're automatically added to the Maker role of the default environment. The default environment is created in the region closest to the default region of the Azure AD tenant.

    Power Apps automatically creates a single default environment for each tenant, which is shared by all users in that tenant.

    These are a special type of production environment. Each tenant has a default environment that's created automatically.
