Like every 6 months, enabling Early Access is one of the best things to look forward to as Microsoft announces Release Plans! So, here’s how you can enable Early Access for Wave 1 2023 if you are new to managing Power Platform environments!

It is recommended to enable Early Access features only for Sandbox environments as it is not GA [General Availability] yet.

Power Platform Admin Center

Given that you are a Power Platform Administrator / Dynamics 365 Administrator, here’s how you can enable Wave 1 2023 access for your Sandbox environment –

1. Select the Sandbox environment
   
   
   
   
2. Then, see the Updates section where you’ll now see 2021 Wave 1 updates available in Off mode.
   
   
   
3. On the right hand side, you can select the U
   
   
4. Then, enter the Display Name of the environment correctly in order to ensure you are enabling this on the correct environment.
   
   
5. Once you confirm, you’ll see that the Updates have started applying in the background.
   
   
6. And when you click or refresh, you’ll see what’s being Activated in the background based on how your environment is set up.
   
   
7. It takes a few hours based on the environment for the Wave 1 2023 Updates to be applied.
   

And you’re set! Here’s Microsoft Learn Documentation for Wave 1 2023 for Power Platform / Dynamics 365: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/release-plans/?WT.mc_id=DX-MVP-5003911
