Dynamics 365 portals was the earlier branding name of Power Apps portals which was changed with the launch of Power Apps portals on October 1, 2019.

Going forward, all the portals are referred to as **Power Apps portals**. One of the major changes introduced in portals after October 1, 2019 is the licensing model. Earlier, portals were licensed add-ons to Dynamics 365 apps while certain Dynamics 365 licenses included 1 portal add-on. After October 1, 2019, portals are [licensed based on usage](https://docs.microsoft.com/power-platform/admin/powerapps-flow-licensing-faq#can-you-share-more-details-regarding-the-new-power-apps-portals-licensing). All existing portals will be part of a transition period based on current customer contract after which they will need to be converted to new licensing model.

You can check the type of a portal from the [Power Apps Portals admin center](./admin/admin-overview.md):
For add-on portals, the portal type has 'add-on' suffix added. For example, a production add-on portal type lists as 'Production (add-on)'.
