Import The Sample Solution Into The Dev Environment

This Power Platform Pipelines tutorial uses a sample solution with a canvas app, a model driven app, a flow, connections references, environment variables and tables. Rather than build them from scratch, we will import them into the development environment. That way we can keep focused on learning Power Platform application lifecycle management. Table of Contents
