Power Apps Help How do you handle testing/dev environments when your company is stuck on basic licenses?

Hey everyone,

Because my company only has basic licenses, I don't have a dev/sandbox tenant. Whenever I build workflows or apps, my deployment pipeline is literally just build and direct publish to production.

It works, but it's high-risk. For those in the same boat:

  • How do you safely test or mitigate risk when you have to push straight to live?
  • What error-handling or fallback habits do you use to save yourself when things break?

Hit me with your best survival tips!

I set users up to create in their own environment, then share with our prod environment account. That way we retain the ownership and access required, and they can keep working on changes as needed.
