What the notice says
Microsoft’s text, with source markup removedIn April 2026, we updated how storage is reported in Dataverse, moving solution-aware components and metadata from the database tier to the file tier. This change has no impact on apps, flows, solutions, or integrations.How does this affect me?Within the Power Platform admin center, under Resources and then Capacity:Database storage is lower by the amount previously attributed to this content. File storage is proportionally higher. Total tenant storage is unchanged. Content moved tiers; it did not grow. Database and file capacity are entitled and priced separately:If you were near your database limit, you likely have more headroom. If you were near your file limit, confirm you have sufficient file capacity; additional capacity is available via add-on. What do I need to do to prepare?This message is for awareness and no action required.We recommend admins sign in to the Power Platform admin center and navigate to Resources and then Capacity to review Database, File, and Log usage at the tenant and environment level, especially if trending near the file entitlement.If you have questions about this change or your capacity position, please contact Microsoft Support.Additional informationDataverse capacity-based storage overview Dataverse capacity-based storage details Add more Microsoft Dataverse capacity to your tenant Power Platform Licensing Guide
