    Hi Tony Fontanoz

    The issue you're encountering with your trial tenant not allowing the creation of a new environment is related to the storage capacity requirement. Even though it’s a fresh environment, each Dataverse environment requires at least 1GB of available storage, which applies to all tenants, including trial ones. 

    Here’s how you can address the issue: 

    1.Check current storage usage: Verify if there is any pre-existing data or apps consuming storage. You can do this by visiting the Power Platform Admin Center and reviewing your capacity settings. 

    2.Free up storage: If there are any unused environments or data, consider deleting them to make room for the new environment. 

    3.Purchase additional storage: If your tenant lacks the required capacity, you can explore options to purchase additional Dataverse storage to increase your space. You can find more details on capacity and storage here:
