Power Platform Build Tools - Power Platform Create Environment - enable apps without selecting any

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi,

I'm using Power Platform Create Environment tool to create an env. I want to create a CE env without any specific app.

Creating env through the admin center, I can enable dynamics 365 app and choose `None`, while in the tool I need to select one of the apps.

Is there a way to enable apps without installing any through the tool? in case not - what is the recommended approach? (is it using PowerShell script?)

Thanks!

    Hello,

    Apps parameter is optional as per docs.

    docs.microsoft.com/.../devops-build-tool-tasks

    Have you tried without specifying this parameter value?

    Please mark my answer verified if this is helpful!

    Thanks, Bipin Kumar , however, having:

    Without using `AppsTemplate` Or

    AppsTemplate: ''

    both create a CDS env.

    I've tried to use AppsTemplate: 'None' but that, obviously, didn't work.

    I need some entities that are available when enabling dynamics365 apps (even without deploying any apps specifically).
