applications with them (good for canvas apps)
Ongoing application maintenance
Here are a few things to consider while you are between updates.
 PowerApps canvas applications need to be periodically republished for best performance

and stability. About every six months you should re-publish your deployed PowerApps
canvas applications even if they haven’t changed. This ensures the application picks up the
latest runtime changes in the environments.
 Keep an eye on your CDS instance storage usage as well as your Flow quotas and adjust
resources and licensing as needed.
