[Power Platform communication site template] Import solution to Dev from Commit in ALM

[MarenBru]

Describe your bug, question or feature ask.

We have encountered a problem: A solution in Dev is missing a canvas app and a flow. It is no longer possible to restore the environment (due to too much time passing). There is no other backup of the solution.

The solution has been committed multiple times using ALM Accelerator and has been deployed to both Test and Prod. The solution is complete and working fine in the Test and Prod environments. Is it possible to download one of the commits that has been made in the ALM Accelerator (Azure DevOps) and import this as an unmanaged solution into the Dev environment?

@MarenBru it is possible to import the solution from source control using the Import function in ALM Accelerator.

1. Select the maker environment to import the solution into
2. Create a deployment profile for the dev ops project / repo that has the solution source
3. Select the import solution function from the top of the ALM Accelerator and select profile, source (repo), folder and select Import Solution

Hi @MarenBru,
According to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/alm/pipelines, Power Platform Pipelines are now the recommended approach for Application Lifecycle Management (ALM). The ALM Accelerator is no longer actively maintained or supported. Therefore, this issue is being closed accordingly.
