🚀 What is PowerMover?

Many companies have them: Citizen Developers who create solutions with Power Apps, Power Automate and Dataverse – and at some point ask themselves:

"Who actually owns what? And how do I get it handed over properly?"

That’s exactly what PowerMover is for: A Canvas App + Flow Toolkit that allows you to:


  • change the owner of Canvas Apps, Cloud Flows, Connection References and Environment Variables

  • transfer multiple components in one go ,

  • and now new: you can also share, revoke and analyze connection references .




🔧 Typical use cases

  • Mover, Leaver process: Marvin leaves the project, Marie takes over – everything transferred in 1 minute.

  • ALM preparation : A common DEV solution must be merged – all components are transferred to one user

  • Organizational handover : Projects move to other teams – ownership is cleared.

🔄 New in the update: Share connection references like a pro

Until now, it was hardly possible to share a connection reference with another person without leaving the UI or changing owners.


With the latest PowerMover update, you can do this directly with a click in the app :

function

Description

🔍 Access analysis

See at a glance who currently has access to a connection reference – including permissions (Read, Write, Share...)

Grant access

Share a Connection Reference with every user in your environment – with exactly the rights you grant

Revoke access

Remove user rights from existing references



💡 How PowerMover works in practice

PowerMover consists of:

  • a Canvas app for management and selection,

  • multiple Instant Flows that perform targeted actions: e.g. change owner , share , revoke access , display access .


All actions rely on standard Dataverse tables , such as:

  • canvasapp

  • workflow

  • connectionreference

  • principalobjectaccess

  • environment variable definition


➡️ No plugin. No custom code.
