Business value
Take advantage of actionable insights embedded in the Power Platform admin center designed to help admins identify unused and orphaned Power Apps deployed across the organization. Need to manage the rapid growth of Power Apps across the organization? Use these solutions to help reduce service COGS for your business by maximizing investments on those applications that are being used most often across active environments.
Admins often struggle with the responsibility of ensuring the organization's app portfolio continuously promotes the most effective solutions. This can be even more difficult when tasked with supporting a bloat of unused applications. At best, orphaned solutions offer a distraction to members of your organization. More often, they present the opportunity to elevate privileges by performing operations that function using shared credentials. Hygiene analytics for Power Apps are essential in managing costs attributed with the expansion of apps to supplement or replace transactions which were historically paper based.
Feature details
Microsoft Power Platform service admins, Dynamics 365 admins, and Microsoft 365 global admins will be able to opt in to out-of-box, tenant-level reports designed to help identify unused and orphaned applications. For environment-level admins, views are automatically filtered to only include the environments they manage. These analytics are derived from telemetry events produced when users open and interact with Power Apps.
Unlike the usage report, this view surfaces those applications that are not being used by members of your organization. Use built-in filters to view applications which haven't been used in the last month, two months, three months, or over a year. Admins are responsible for maintaining good environment hygiene by ensuring outdated solutions are frequently purged from the organization's app portfolio.
