We can use tons of remarkable commands in Power Platform CLI that can be very useful. For example, when changing Localization. Instead of doing it in the usual

 

The article discusses using the Power Platform Command Line Interface (CLI) to make changes in Localization in a more streamlined and efficient way, particularly useful for Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) purposes.

The steps to do this are as follows:

  1. PAC Solution Clone: Before starting, the user must set up 'pac auth' to select the desired organization. With a prepared terminal/command prompt, the user can export the solution in a 'solution unpack' format using the 'pac solution clone' command.

  2. Adding Localization: After exporting, the user can modify the generated XML files to include new localizations. For example, the user could add localization in Indonesian for an attribute.

  3. PAC Solution Unpack: To replicate the effect of PAC Solution Clone, the user can export both Managed and Unmanaged versions of the solution and run 'pac solution unpack'. A useful parameter is '–packagetype Both', which generates the same structure as 'pac solution clone' without needing to export Managed and Unmanaged manually.

  4. PAC Solution Pack: To obtain an Unmanaged solution, the user runs the 'pac solution pack' command, providing paths to the zipfile and folder, along with specifying the 'packagetype' as Unmanaged.

  5. PAC Solution Import: To apply the changes to the CRM environment, the user runs 'pac solution import' command. This imports the solution and publishes the changes all at once.

  6. PAC Solution Sync: If any changes are made directly in the Environment, the user can update the files to match the Dataverse environment by running the 'pac solution sync' command.

The Power Platform CLI, with its suite of commands like 'pac solution clone', 'pac solution unpack', 'pac solution pack', 'pac solution import', and 'pac solution sync', opens up many exciting possibilities for developers, simplifying tasks, and enabling more effective ALM.
