Power Platform Solution Environment Variables : Always Visible and Editable

During December 2023, Microsoft released an update related to Power Platform Solution’s environment variables.

When a solution is imported manually or using pipelines, if the environment variable contains a value, then the variable was not displaying in certain conditions. It was very annoying in many cases. Finally, the fix resolved the issue and empowered all the users to make changes as required.

Now, makers will be able to validate the values that are going to be used in their components (such as their apps) in the target environment. 

This is a huge step forward for environment variables ease–of–use and transparency, so makers of all experience levels can participate in healthy ALM practices, especially with pipelines which makes it all even easier. 

Each environment variable in the solution will have one of three value sources in this new experience: 

a. Solution value

b. Target environment value

c. Default value.
