Why it matters
- Makers: Export managed and unmanaged solutions before 15 December 2026, because unmanaged developer environments will then be suspended and later deleted.
- Makers: Use 30-day Trial environments for occasional premium capability testing when no license is assigned.
- Admins/IT: Filter Type = Developer and Managed = No in the Power Platform admin center, then enable Managed Environments or migrate needed solutions to Sandbox when compatible licenses are available.
