Storage Capacity

slalithp — Tue, 20 Apr 2021 23:50:24 GMT

What and from where do I get this storage capacity from? Is 1 GB the default environment dataverse capacity? I have just created few environments with few canvas applications. Why is the data getting filled up when I do not use any files in my application? I use Excel and SQL server as my datasources, what exactly is happening? I have deleted the environments and applications except default environment but I still see the Storage is full and cannot create a new environment. how can I create a new environment again?

Hi ,

When you create an environment, it reserves 1GB of storage capacity regardless if it is using less.

More informatiom in environments and storage capacity is provided here.

Note: there is typically a delay in the storage capacity reports so may need to wait a bit until any storage you free up is reflected.

Hi ,

It looks like you might be in a trial tenant with the allocations but maybe not.

If you purchase a single "Power Apps Per User" license you will be granted 10GB of storage in your tenant. This is always a first recommendation for my customers to get that storage allotment in the dataverse. The list price for this is $40 per user / month. You will also get allocations for every user that is added to the environment for either Power Apps Per User or Power Apps Per App licenses but these allocations are different.

A great detailed guide is here.

General table from this guide is below

As you can see you get 250 MB of database capacity for each additional Power Apps Per User plan and 50 MB for each Power Apps Per App plan.

Hope this helps! Please accept if answers your question or Like if helped in any way.

Thanks,

Drew
