Use the Admin center to manage environments and data policies in Power Automate

Introduction:-

The admin center is the central location where tenant admins and environment admins manage an organization’s data policies and environments. Any changes you make in the admin center are immediately available to users within the organization.

The Power Platform admin center provides a unified portal for administrators to manage environments and settings for Power Apps, Power Automate, and customer engagement apps.

Admin Center:-

There are two ways to open the Admin center.

Option 1: Power Automate settings

2. Select the Settings button (the gear symbol), and then select Admin Center on the menu.

Option 2: Open the admin center directly

• Go directly to the Admin center, and sign in by using your work account.

Manage Environments :-

An environment is a space where you can store, manage, and share your organization's business data, apps, and flows. It also serves as a container to separate apps that might have different roles, security requirements, or target audiences.

The way that you use environments depends on your organization and the apps that you're trying to build. Here are some examples:

• You can create separate environments to group the test and production versions of your apps.

• You can create separate environments that correspond to specific teams or departments in your company. Each environment holds the relevant data and apps for each team/department.

• You can create separate environments for different global branches of your company.

• You can build all your apps in a single environment.

Follow these steps to manage the  environments:

1. Sign into Power Automate.

2. In the top right corner, you see an image that represents your profile.

3. Select the image. ...

4. To switch to another environment, select that environment in the list:

5. Power Automate switches to the new environment.

Data policies

When you use Power Automate, the data is automatically protected with whatever security roles your organization already has in place. It isn't possible to use Power Automate to get access to information that the user doesn't already have access to in the organization. Some organizations may want to add an additional, optional layer of security that can proactively block flows that violate certain policies.

 

manage data policies in following ways:-

To protect this data, Power Automate provides you with the ability to create and enforce policies that define which connectors can access and share business data. The policies that define how data can be shared are referred to as data loss prevention (DLP) policies.

 DLP policies are created in the Power Platform Admin Center. They affect Power Platform canvas apps and Power Automate flows. To create a DLP policy, you need to be a Tenate Admin or have the Environment Admin Role.
