The default deployment pipeline rule for environment groups is designed to mitigate steps required to implement standardized application lifecycle management (ALM) processes at scale. These rules ensure consistent application of pipeline settings and configurations across an entire group, simplifying governance and compliance for your organization.
Important
- This is a preview feature.
- Preview features aren’t meant for production use and might have restricted functionality. These features are subject to supplemental terms of use, and are available before an official release so that customers can get early access and provide feedback.
Prerequisites to configure the default deployment pipeline rule
- You must be a Tenant Administrator to access environment groups in the Power Platform admin center.
- The Power Platform Pipelines package must be installed in at least one environment and you must have a pipelines host configured.
- At least one pipeline must be configured in the desired pipelines host.
Important
- Ensure that all users of the pipeline have access to the selected pipelines host. The easiest way to do this is to create a Microsoft Entra team on the pipelines host that maps to a Microsoft Entra security group containing the makers. This ensures users can obtain just-in-time (JIT) access to the pipelines host and be part of the 'default team,' thus gaining the 'Deployment Pipeline User' role.
- For the purposes of the default deployment pipeline rule, "development" environments are defined as developer or sandbox environments. The chosen pipeline will only be associated with environments of these types. This requirement prevents production environments from being unintentionally specified as development environments in the pipelines host. Environments can only be specified as development or target environments in a pipelines host, they can't be both.
- All environments used in pipelines must have a Microsoft Dataverse database.
- All target environments used in a pipeline must be enabled as Managed Environments.

Configure the default deployment pipeline rule for a group
Within an environment group in the Power Platform admin center, select Rules.
Select Default deployment pipeline from the list of rules.
In the first dropdown list, select a Pipeline Host.
Once a host is selected, select a Pipeline to associate with all development environments in the group and to share with all users on the default team of the pipelines host environment.
Select Save.
You should now observe an asterisk next to the rule, indicating that it has unpublished changes. Select Publish rules in the command bar.
The default deployment pipeline rule is now configured for development and sandbox environments in the group. Wait up to 10 minutes for the rule to apply.
