Show notes

Somewhere in your Microsoft 365 tenant, a Power Platform environment is filling up with apps and flows that nobody planned. Microsoft creates it automatically for every tenant, and it's called the default environment.

In this episode of Simply Explained you will learn:
  • What the Power Platform admin center actually is
  • Environments are the one idea that makes the rest make sense
  • Who gets in, and why the role matters more than the license
  • The jobs people do inside the portal
  • Guardrails, not handcuffs, and how policies keep data safe
  • Keeping an eye on capacity, licensing, and cost
  • Where beginners get surprised, and the honest limits
  • How it fits beside Microsoft 365 and Azure
  • A short recap, and one question for you

Simply Explained by M365.FM breaks down Microsoft 365, Azure and modern IT topics in clear, jargon-free language. Hosted by Mirko Peters.
