Description

Description of Feature or Work Requested

Currently it's possible to target GCC environments if you modify the powerAppsUrl setting to https://gov.api.powerapps.us/ and the (undocumented) resource setting to https://gov.service.powerapps.us/, but not all govcloud users are aware of this. It would increase adoption if there was a setting to specify what cloud to target (commercial/gcc/gcch/dod.) since users would not have to know the specific settings and values that needed modified.

Before I fork the repo and add the capability to target gov clouds, I wanted to make sure there weren't other factors I was unaware of that would prevent a PR from being accepted.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing powerAppsUrl and resource settings and tracing how connector configuration selects an environment. Check whether cloud-specific behavior already exists for GCC, GCCH, or DoD. Done means users can select commercial, GCC, GCCH, or DoD through a documented setting without manually changing those URLs.
