Enable maker welcome content (preview)

[This article is pre-release documentation and is subject to change.]

In Managed Environments, admins can provide customized welcome content to help their makers get started with Power Apps. When you add your own help content, it replaces the default Power Apps first-time help experience for makers.

When the welcome content is enabled, upon signing in to Power Apps, makers will be greeted with customized getting started information. More information: Use the learn hub
