What is Solution in power Pages?

A solution is a container for components such as Website Configuration and Dataverse Components.

Website Configuration includes all settings and configurations for the Power Pages site, such as page layouts, templates, themes, and other design elements.

Dataverse Components contain tables, forms, views, and business logic (such as workflows and business rules).

By combining all website and Dataverse components into a single solution artifact, you can take advantage of advanced application lifecycle management (ALM) capabilities to deploy websites to destination environments using managed solutions

Prerequisites

Enable enhanced data model to use solutions with Power Pages.

 

Add Power Pages site and components to a solution

Go to the Solutions section.

Select an existing solution or create a new solution based on your requirements.

Click on Add existing menu, select Site.

Select the site you want to add and click on 'Add.'

We can see the site and its components added in the solutions.

 

Adding Newly Created Site Components to the Solution

 Create new page in website.

We need to add this newly created page (site component) to the solution.

Select the component and click on Add.

 

After adding all the required components, export the solution as Managed.

After successfully exporting the solution, you can import it into your target environment.

After importing your solution into the target environment, perform the following steps:

Important note: Activate the site in the target environment.

Bind the record for an enhanced data model website to a site 

  1. Go to the admin center

  2. Select the target environment

  3.  Resources --> Power Pages sites.

  4. Select the destination site, select the ellipsis (), and then select Manage to open the site details page.

  5. In the Site Details section, select Edit. Select the imported site record in the Website Record dropdown list, and then select Save.

           6. Select Site Actions, and then select Restart site.

Now you can see the website working in the target environment.
