Change the environment type

You may decide that your customization work developed and tested on a sandbox environment is now ready to go live. If you’ve placed your sandbox environment in administration mode, only users with System Administrator or System Customizer security roles are able to sign in to that environment. Once you change the environment type to production, all your users can access your organization. When you configure or edit an environment, you can change the environment from:

  • Production to sandbox
  • Sandbox to production

Make sure you have the System Administrator or Environment Admin role credentials. To check your security role, go to View your user profile. If you don’t have the correct permissions, contact your system administrator.

To change the environment type:

  1. Sign in to the Power Platform admin center.
  2. In the navigation pane, select Manage.
  3. In the Manage pane, select Environments.
  4. On the Environments page, select the environment you want to change.
  5. In the command bar, click Convert to production or Convert to sandbox.
  6. Click Continue.
  7. On the confirmation page, click OK.
