Migrate ALM process mining entities with Power Platform solutions

  • Article

Application lifecycle management (ALM) in Process Mining allows you to migrate your process mining entities with Power Platform solutions. To complete the migration, you need to create and export your solution in your Dev environment. Then, you need to change to your Test environment to import it.

The source and target of your process mining artifacts determine which environment you need to use:

  • Dev environment: The environment from which you want to port artifacts.
  • Test environment: The environment to which you want to port artifacts.
