How to do ALM with Power Platform

on YouTube ↗30m

" summary

Shows how to run repeatable ALM for Power Platform using Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions and the Power Platform CLI, plus in-product Power Platform pipelines (preview). Demonstrates exporting managed and unmanaged solutions, unpacking with the solution pack tool, running Solution Checker, and deploying a mixed‑reality app that calls the Smithsonian 3D API. Emphasizes using a service principal, artifacts stored in a host with run history and pre‑validation, cross‑platform builds (Linux runners okay; Windows + .NET 4.8 required for packaging/data migration), and a successful end‑to‑end demo.
