ALM Accelerator For Advanced Makers September 2021
Issues and new features in this release:
https://github.com/microsoft/coe-starter-kit/milestone/13?closed=1
Setup Note
HTTP with Azure AD Connector Configuration
The latest release includes usage of the HTTP with Azure AD Connector. When running the app for the first time you will be prompted to create a new HTTP with Azure AD Connector. Enter the following when prompted (https://graph.microsoft.com).
Create a Service Connection for AA4AM Installation Environment
Additionally, there is a post setup step required to create a Power Platform Service Connection in your Azure DevOps project that points to the environment where AA4AM is installed. In order to create the Service Connection
- Ensure that an Application User is created in your installation environment for AA4AM (see https://github.com/microsoft/coe-starter-kit/blob/main/ALMAcceleratorForAdvancedMakers/SETUPGUIDE.md#create-an-app-user-in-your-dataverse-environments for instructions).
- Create a new Service Connection that points to the installation environment for AA4AM (see https://github.com/microsoft/coe-starter-kit/blob/main/ALMAcceleratorForAdvancedMakers/SETUPGUIDE.md#create-service-connections-for-devops-to-access-power-platform for instructions).
First Time Setup Instructions
To get started with the ALM Accelerator For Advanced Makers you can
- Use the preview CoE CLI to automate the install at https://github.com/microsoft/coe-starter-kit/blob/main/coe-cli/docs/aa4am/readme.md or in the Power Platform CoE CLI E-Book (Recommended)
- Use the manual setup documentation can be found at https://github.com/microsoft/coe-starter-kit/blob/main/ALMAcceleratorForAdvancedMakers/SETUPGUIDE.md
Upgrade Instructions
If you are upgrading to the latest release you will need to perform the following steps.
-
Import the latest AA4AM Solution https://github.com/microsoft/coe-starter-kit/releases/download/ALMAcceleratorForAdvancedMakers-September2021a/ALMAcceleratorForAdvancedMakers_1.0.20211001.1_managed.zip
-
Update your pipeline templates repo with the latest from https://github.com/microsoft/coe-alm-accelerator-templates/archive/refs/tags/ALMAcceleratorForAdvancedMakers-September2021.zip
-
We've removed the dependency on the Power DevOps Tools extension in this release. Any extension that has been removed from this list can be safely removed Install Azure DevOps Extensions.
-
Ensure that you have the latest version of Power Platform Build Tools (1.0.35) installed.
-
Update the Azure DevOps Build Service Permissions to allow the pipelines to configure other pipelines (e.g. setting variables for deployment configuration). Follow the SETUPGUIDE.md to set the permissions.
-
In this release we have updated the pipelines to use deployment configuration files stored in source control rather than using Pipeline variables for the json configuration of Connection References, Environment Variables, Component Ownership, App Sharing etc. We've also split the configuration between a customDeploymentSettings.json and deploymentSettings.json in order to use the built in import task to set environment variables and connection references. Please see DEPLOYMENTCONFIGGUIDE.md for more details.
[!NOTE] If you have previously configured your pipelines using pipeline variables your pipeline variables will no longer work. However, with the addition of functionality to auto generate the deployment configuration files and configure deployment settings via the app in the latest version this should be a simple transition.
-
To take advantage of the new deployment configuration functionality
-
It is recommended that you delete all of your existing deployment pipeline variables except ServiceConnection and EnvironmentName and reconfigure your solutions for each target environment using the new deployment configuration functionality in the app.
-
Update your export-solution-to-git pipeline to include the following variable
-
Once you've updated the pipeline variable(s) go to the AA4AM App. Configure your solution deployment and export the solution to source control to ensure your deployment settings are stored appropriately in source control and the associated pipeline variables are created.
-

https://github.com/microsoft/coe-starter-kit/milestone/14
First Time Setup Instructions
Get started with the CoE Starter Kit Setup: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/guidance/coe/setup
Upgrade Instructions
Upgrading from the latest version: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/guidance/coe/setup#installing-updates
You will need to upgrade Core before you can update dependent solutions.
Please upgrade in the following order:

- Upgrade Nurture
- Upgrade Gov
- Upgrade Audit Logs
If any of these do not work, keep that order but try to update instead of upgrade.
And if that still does not work, use classic UX to overwrite
Try to upgrade using the classic UX
Solution > Switch to Classic (note this can take some time, may have to try twice)
Click Import (fourth from the left)
Choose File (the solution file you were trying to install) > Next > Next >
Leave at Action=Upgrade but chose Overwrite customizations (note this is not the default) > Import

CoE Starter Kit August 2021
Issues and new features in this release:
https://github.com/microsoft/coe-starter-kit/milestone/11
First Time Setup Instructions
Get started with the CoE Starter Kit Setup: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/guidance/coe/setup
Upgrade Instructions
Upgrading from the latest version: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/guidance/coe/setup#installing-updates
In the August release, we have removed an old dependency that is no longer used, the CoE Settings table. Upgrade from July (or previous) solutions will need to proceed differently than normal as a result.
You have two options to successfully upgrade as a result.
Option 1: Changing the order of upgrade.
You will need to upgrade the dependent solutions before you upgrade Core. If possible, this is the preferred path.
Please upgrade in the following order:
Upgrade Nurture
Upgrade Gov
Update Audit Logs
Then upgrade Core
Option 2: Chose Update rather than Upgrade.
If you have dependencies from Core for these (aka if you are upgrading from older solutions). You may need to chose update instead. This will leave the CoE Settings in place, when you upgrade the other solutions, the dependency will remove, and your later upgrade (ex in September) will remove CoE Settings.
Instead of upgrade, use update to install Core August solutions.
As always, be sure to remove unmanaged layers in order to see our changes.

ALM Accelerator For Advanced Makers July 2021
[!IIMPORTANT] This release includes the use of an update in the platform that will not be released to the following geos (SPL, GCC, USG, CHN) until the last week in July. If you are using AA4AM in one of these geos please wait to upgrade until August 1st 2021.
Issues and new features in this release:
https://github.com/microsoft/coe-starter-kit/milestone/10
First Time Setup Instructions
To get started with the ALM Accelerator For Advanced Makers you can
- Use the preview CoE CLI to automate the install at https://github.com/microsoft/coe-starter-kit/blob/main/coe-cli/docs/aa4am/readme.md or in the Power Platform CoE CLI E-Book
- Use the manual setup documentation can be found at https://github.com/microsoft/coe-starter-kit/blob/main/ALMAcceleratorForAdvancedMakers/SETUPGUIDE.md
Upgrade Instructions
If you are upgrading to the latest release you will need to perform the following steps.
-
Import the latest AA4AM Solution https://github.com/microsoft/coe-starter-kit/releases/download/ALMAcceleratorForAdvancedMakers-July2021/ALMAcceleratorForAdvancedMakers_1.0.20210727.1_managed.zip
-
Update your pipeline templates repo with the latest from https://github.com/microsoft/coe-alm-accelerator-templates
-
Export solutions with Canvas Apps using latest version of AA4AM.
[!NOTE] AA4AM use a preview version of the Power Apps Source File Pack and Unpack Utility (https://github.com/microsoft/PowerApps-Language-Tooling/blob/master/README.md). As such while AA4AM is still in public preview we are updating our pipelines to stay in sync with the latest releases of the Pack / Unpack utility. The Pack / Unpack utility is not backwards compatible while in preview meaning the version used to unpack must be the same as the version used to pack. If you have previously unpacked Canvas Apps using a previous version of AA4AM you will not be able to repack those apps. Therefore, you must export your solutions to source control again using the latest version so the formats match. We are planning on providing backward compatibility going forward after this release #895.
-
In this release we have updated the pipelines to allow for using a deployment configuration file stored in source control as an option rather than using Pipeline variables for the json configuration of Connection References, Component Ownership, App Sharing etc. There is a new doc included on how to setup your deployment configuration file and use variable substitution techniques to secure sensitive data from being source controlled. DEPLOYMENTCONFIGGUIDE.md.
[!NOTE] If you have previously configured your pipelines using pipeline variables you are not required to switch to using the deployment configuration file and the pipelines will continue to fall back to using pipeline variables in the absence of a deployment configuration file for the environment to which a solution is deployed. However, future updates to the Power Platform build tool will be reliant on a deployment configuration file so you may want to consider moving to this standard now.
-
The list of Azure DevOps extensions required for the AA4AM pipelines has been updated. Double check this list to ensure you have the correct extensions installed. Any extension that has been removed from the list can be safely removed Install Azure DevOps Extensions.

NOTE to Private Preview Members: In this release we made the decision to remove the build-deploy-Solution pipeline that was available in Private Preview in favor of the new environment specific pipelines. Up until the previous release we were still supporting the old multi-stage pipeline, but it was causing us to have to put in a lot of workarounds to keep supporting it.
The benefit of the new environment specific pipelines is you can set them up for as many or as few environments as you like and you can also trigger production deployments without a build which will deploy the latest solution from the test pipeline instead of building again
