Administer Microsoft Power Platform
The Power Platform admin center (https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com) provides a unified portal for administrators to manage environments and settings for Power Apps, Power Automate, Power Pages, and Microsoft Copilot Studio.
Power BI administrators use the Power BI admin portal (https://app.powerbi.com) to manage a Power BI tenant including the configuration of governance policies, usage monitoring, and provisioning of licenses, capacities, and organizational resources.
