Power Apps

Edit online

Power Apps service can only standard protect Canvas apps which have been published and component libraries.

For subscriptions with Multi-Geo enabled, flows can only be protected in the Central IBM® Storage Protect for Cloud Location due to API limitations.

To use IBM Storage Protect for Cloud Microsoft™ 365 to protect the Power Apps data, you must configure an app profile for the Microsoft Delegated app or a custom Azure app with delegated permissions.

Note: If you have been using a scan profile with service account authentication for Power® Platform object types, the Auto discovery scan jobs and the IBM Storage Protect for Cloud jobs can continue using the service account authentication.
  • For the list of the required permissions added to the Delegated app for Power Apps, refer to the Required Permissions of Microsoft 365 App Profile.
  • If you use service account authentication or the Delegated app to protect the Power Apps data, the service account or the authentication user of the Delegated app must be the Global Administrator and the Environment Admin/System Administrator, and have the Power Apps for Microsoft 365 license to proceed.
    Note: The backup job will automatically add the service account or the authentication user of the Delegated app as the apps’ co-owner and flow owner (if the app has an associated flow).

After your authentication method is ready, navigate to Auto Discovery in the IBM Storage Protect for Cloud interface to configure a scan profile for the standard Canvas apps and component libraries in Power Apps that you want to protect in IBM Storage Protect for Cloud Microsoft 365. For details, refer to Auto Discovery for Microsoft 365.

Then, you can navigate to the IBM Storage Protect for Cloud Microsoft 365 interface to enable the backup service after the Auto Discovery scan job completes.
