Use Power Platform pipelines with Power Pages
Using Power Platform pipelines with Power Pages solutions allows you to automate the deployment of websites from development environments to target environments like test and production.
Prerequisites
- You'll need to enable enhanced data model to use pipelines in Power Platform with Power Pages. More information: Power Pages enhanced data model
- To prepare your environments for pipelines in Power Platform, see Set up pipelines in Power Platform.
- Each environment requires a site that is created using the enhanced data model. See create a website by using the enhanced data model.
- You also need to set up and configure a pipeline from your development environment to corresponding target environments. See Power Platform pipelines for details on how to configure pipelines.
Deploy solutions using pipelines
In your development environment, create and configure your website and add the website to a solution, see Use solutions with Power Pages for details on how to add website configuration data to a solution.
In the solution, select the Pipelines icon on the side toolbar.
Select a pipeline from the dropdown list.
Select Deploy here.
Choose whether you wish to deploy immediately or schedule the deployment for a later time.
Select Next.
Verify the summary, modify the version number and deployment notes and select Deploy.

Activate on the target environment
The first time you deploy a website to a destination environment, you need to reactivate the site. See Reactivating site on target environment for information on how to reactivate a website that has been deployed to the destination environment.
When the site has been deployed, you can continue to deploy more configuration changes using the same pipeline process. You need to clear the cache on the destination website to see the changes.
