Power Pages Management app

Not all website configuration features are available in the Power Apps design studio or Power Pages admin center.

The Power Pages Management app can be used for setting up multiple languages, editing website settings, creating and editing content snippets, setting up HTTP headers, and other advanced configuration tasks.

Note

To use the Portal Management app, you will need to be assigned the system administrator role in the same Microsoft Dataverse environment as your website.

The Power Pages Management app can be accessed directly from Power Pages Home screen by selecting Power Pages management on the overflow menu for the selected website.
