Power Platform Build Tool - Solution Upgrade and Remove Solution Missing

[Sugaprakash]

Hi,

Solution Upgrade and Remove Solution components are missing in power platform tools. 

Do we have any idea when we get this feature released?

Thanks

Thanks for your response.

As per your suggestion, if we use whole or base solution for deployment instead of patch, I dont see the scenario to use patch.

As most of the customers wants to implement  Devops for power platform projects, Will Microsoft remove patch concept in feature release? 

Thanks,

Suga

We are not planning on removing patches, but their use in the future will be much lower once the other improvements I am talking about are done.  I don't want folks to jump to the conclusion that we are removing something.  I want them to understand that we are investing in ways to make standard solution actions simple and effective without customers needing to jump into really complex things like patching.  You will be able to achieve the same things that drive you today to use patching by using a standard solution in the future without needing to use patching.  This is NOT saying that we are deprecating patching.

@Shan-Mcarthur any chance the "Upgrade Solution" option is being added to the Power Platform Build Tools (maybe as an option on Import Solution)?
