Sign-up

What are the system requirements for the trial?

This app is a cloud-based service that doesn't require special software other than an up-to-date web browser, though some restrictions apply. For the best trial experience, avoid accessing the trial site in incognito mode. Learn more about web application requirements.

How do I sign up for the trial without a Microsoft 365 tenant?

You can enter a non-work email address and we'll create an account and tenant for you.

Can I sign up for trial using a personal email ID that's not associated with a Microsoft account?

You can use a personal email ID. But you won't be able to access Power Platform admin center to add more users to the trial, change security roles, or extend the trial period.

Can I sign up for multiple Dynamics 365 apps such as Sales, Marketing, and Customer Service?

Yes, you can. To view all available trials, visit the trial hub page. You can use the same email account to sign up for different trials. However, it isn't possible to have multiple apps on the same trial site. Each trial will be on a different tenant and URL. The trial data isn't shared across apps.

Trial app

I didn't receive the trial details email after signing up, what should I do?

When you sign up for the trial, you'll receive an email with the trial details. If you don't see the email in your inbox, check your spam folder. Alternatively, use the following steps to access your app:

  1. Go to trial site and select Try for free.
  2. Enter the email ID that you used, to sign up for the trial. You'll be redirected to your trial app by the system.

How do I add more users to a trial?

To add users, go to the Microsoft 365 admin center using the trial admin account. Follow the admin center guidance to add users up to the trial license limit. If the user you're adding already has a Microsoft 365 account, assign them an appropriate security role in the trial org. For more information, see Assign a security role to a user.

How many users can I add to my trial environment?

You can add an unlimited number of users to the trial environment.

How do I reset the trial environment?

You can't reset the trial environment. However, you can wait for the trial period to end and then sign up again for a new trial.

How do I extend the trial?

You can extend the trial for another trial period in the admin center. For instructions, see Extend your trial. You can extend your trial once.

How do I cancel the trial?

If you have signed up for the trial using a managed Microsoft Entra ID account, you can request your Power Platform admin to delete the trial environment. If you have signed up using your personal account, you can't cancel the trial manually. The trial will expire after the 30-day trial period and the trial environment is automatically deleted.

Can I convert the trial to a paid license?

Yes, you can purchase licenses through direct, credit card purchase at admin.microsoft.com. Or, you can work with sales to establish a volume licensing or enterprise agreement. Visit our Pricing page for more information on pricing and purchasing.

To purchase the license using an existing account, work with the administrator of the account to apply for licenses.

After you've applied for the license to your tenant, you can publish your environment to production. You can remove the sample data. However, you have to manually reset the configuration and remove any test data that you've added. We recommend that you create a fresh environment to use for your production environment and add the configurations you’d like to move forward with.

What are the trial limits and quotas?

The following limitations apply for the trial:

  • The trial is available to you for 30 days. After that, you can request for an extension for another 30 days, buy a paid license, or sign up for a new trial.
  • The trial will expire if there’s no activity on the app for 14 consecutive days. Expired trials can't be reactivated. However, you can start a new trial.
  • You can have only one active trial per app at a time. You can sign up again after your current trial for the app ends.
