What this is: The authoritative reference for all Power Platform environments in this project.
What this is NOT: A secrets store. No client secrets, passwords, or API keys are recorded here. Secrets live in Azure Key Vault and Azure DevOps variable groups only.
Who maintains this: The platform architect. Update when environments are created, decommissioned, or their properties change.
