How to extent the Trial license

[Ohsung]

Hi,

I have a few days remaining on Trial plan and email per attached, so want to extend another 30 days, but I can not figure how to extend my initial Trial. Can anyone advise where I can renew the Trial ?

Thanks in advance.

With the change to licensing in October I don't think you can extend your trial anymore.  Your only real option is to convert it to a paid production license.

@Ohsung and @Pstork1,

There might be hope. The only reason I say that is because I was able to extend a trial or should I say get a trial extended as recently as last week by creating a support ticket with Microsoft.

That being said, unless there is a very strong reason to go with a trial environment, I strongly suggest anyone to start off with a Power Apps community plan - these environments never expire. Here's the link: https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/communityplan/

Hi @Ohsung ,

Do you want to extend your PowerApps free trial license?

Currenly, Free trials for Microsoft Power Apps last 30 days in default. If you want to extend your PowerApps free trial license, please consider submit an assisted support ticket through the following link:

https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/support/pro

If you just want to develop your own apps using PowerApps Studio, I think the PowerApps Comnunity Plan would be better for you. Please check the following article:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/pricing-billing-skus#community-plan

Note: You would not be suffered from "Trial Expiration" notification of PowerApps when using "Community Plan".

Best regards,

The community plan is a good option if you are trying to learn, but you need to recognize that there are some limitations on the community plan.  For example, the community plan is a single user environment so you can't share anything.  It also doesn't support the use of the on-premises gateway. So although it is useful when learning it isn't a substitute for an actual dev environment.

If anyone is still trying to find a link to extend trials, this link worked for me to see all my subscriptions, trials included & ability to extend for a further 30 days. https://admin.microsoft.com/Adminportal/Home#/subscriptions

Please share the steps or can it be done directly from my admin portal?

Strange, I just go an email from Microsoft:

"To continue using all Power Apps capabilities, renew or extend your trial within seven days."

This is a very old thread.  The way trials work has changed several times since this was originally written.

And yet Microsoft tells me to extend my trail license... even though they do not support such a thing
