Creating a Dataverse Starter portal

You can create a website for external and internal users and enable them to interact with data stored in Microsoft Dataverse with the capability to build a portal in Power Apps. Moreover, you can create a portal either in a new environment or in your existing environment.

Steps to Create a Portal

• Firstly, sign in to Power Apps.
• Secondly, under Make your own app, select Portal from blank.
• In case, the selected environment doesn’t contain portal pre-requisites, a message is displayed in the Portal from blank window. It suggested you select another environment or create a new one.
• Next, if you choose to continue with the current environment, enter the required information in the window 
• Then, in the Portal from blank window, enter a name for the portal and address for the website. Consequently, select a language from the drop-down list. Once you’re done, select Create.

Steps to create a New Environment

• Firstly, in the New environment pane, enter a name for the environment, and then select a region and environment type from the drop-down lists. 
• Secondly, we cannot change the region once the environment is created. When you’re done, select Create environment.
• Thirdly, once the environment is created, you’ll receive a confirmation message in the dialog box, and you’ll be prompted to create a database.
• Then, select Create database to enable access to Dataverse.
• Next, select the currency and language for the data stored in the database.
• Lastly, we cannot change the currency or language once the database is created. Once done, select Create my database.
