Who has access to the Power Apps and Power Automate default environment?

The default environment in Power Apps and Power Automate is designed with accessibility in mind, allowing every user within the tenant to create their own applications and automations. This inclusivity promotes a collaborative environment where all users can leverage the platform's capabilities without needing explicit permission from an administrator.

Having every user in the tenant access the default environment facilitates onboarding and immediate engagement with the tools, supporting rapid deployment of solutions tailored to individual or team needs. It encourages innovation and allows users to quickly prototype, test, and deploy applications without bureaucratic delays.

Options that limit access, such as restricting it only to users added by administrators, do not align with the principle of empowering all users within the organization to harness the power of low-code/no-code development tools. These alternatives would inhibit the collaborative spirit intended by Microsoft Power Platform, which aims to democratize application development across all levels of technical expertise within the organization.
