Hi !
The Power Platform Bootcamp is on, and one of the most popular questions is:
How to create a trial account to test and learn ?
The answer is easy in 2 steps.
2 Steps to create a Trial Account
1st step. Sign up for a Microsoft 365 developer tenant:
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/dev-program
Once you created your M365 Dev Account, you will have access to 25 test users. In example:

2nd Step. Use one of these emails to sign up for the power platform developer plan:
Power Apps Developer Plan | Microsoft Power Apps
And that’s it !
Additional Notes
And important, in the 1st step you can use any email account. In example @outlook.com or @gmail. You may need to sign using that email addres.

And this process is not very user friendly. The captcha took some time. For me, it worked fine in Edge.
Once I created the account, I was ready to sign to the Microsoft 365 Dev test subscription.

This will create a complete test environment with +20 users. In the 1st image of this post, I shared some of these users. We can now use those email addresses to request a Power Apps Developer Plan.

Important: to request the Dev Plan we should not use the gmail account.
This plans allows you to get a free developer environment to develop and test apps, including support for premium and custom connectors, Dataverse, and additional developer environments.
- Power AppsโCreate and test unlimited apps with Dataverse and premium connectors.
- Power AutomateโAutomate workflows between applications and services.
- DataverseโBuild a data model that all your apps can use.
- Connect Your DataโConnect to data sources using connectors or with Custom APIs.
- Pick your toolโUse Power Apps, Power Automate, Dataverse, Visual Studio, Visual Studio Code, and Azure services to create the solutions you need.
Cool and easy !
