Creating a new Environment in Power Platform, I get an error that says "Your tenant's administrators have disabled environment creation for non-admin users." I am using the browser with my admin profile, but I can't get it to work.

Question

I'm learning Power Platform from scratch. I'm trying to create a new Environment in Power Platform, I get an error that says "Your tenant's administrators have disabled environment creation for non-admin users. You need this permission to create an environment in your tenant. Please contact your administrator for assistance." I am using the browser with my admin profile, but I can't get it to work. Not sure how to get unstuck.

Hi Dante Carrasco,

Thank you for reaching out to us on Microsoft Q&A forum. 

The error you're seeing occurs because environment creation is restricted at the tenant level. To resolve this, please contact your IT or admin team and ensure that:

1. Your account has the Power Platform Service Administrator or Global Administrator role.
2. The Environment creation setting in the Power Platform Admin Center allows your user to create environments.

Once these permissions are updated, you should be able to create environments. Let me know if you need further assistance.
