Question on difference PWA instances
Hi,
I am researching how to setup permissions in PWA. I'm a SharePoint Administrator, so I understand those permissions and I see there is a way to change the permission management between SharePoint Permissions Mode and Project Permissions Mode.
My main question is, do these permissions affect any PWA that others might have or is it only my instance of PWA? My manager wants a more fine-grained permission set, and it looks like it is best to use the Project Permissions Mode for that. Can I change my PWA and not affect any others as a way to test these permissions?
Update: I see this page on https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/project/manage-project-web-app-permissions-project-server-permission-mode suggests that this is the case, but kind of worried about changing permissions because the permissions are deleted when changing between each way.
Appreciate any help!
Thanks,
Monty

To give you the control you want with Project Web App, I definitely agree you need to change the default setting to Project Permissions Mode. This will allow you to control permissions through the use of Groups and Categories.
Also, to ease your mind, the setting you will be changing will only affect YOUR OWN Project Web App instance, and will not impact any others in your organization. Hope this helps.

I have successfully deployed a PWA for my website, dokanprice.com.pk. Now, I aim to convert it into a Windows Store App and publish it on the Windows Store/Marketplace Store by using pwabuilder.com. However, I am unable to locate the partner ID in the Windows Developer Console. Where can I find this information?
