Managed solutions are recommended for production, and we’ve been using them lately without much troubles, but, occasionally, something does come up. One of the solutions had a workflow which required reference data. So it should not have been included into that solution to start with, but, since it was, it could not be activated. We’ve… Read More »
Have you ever used a Word Template in Power Apps? If you have not, have a look at this documentation page. For the model-driven apps, it’s one of the easiest ways to quickly create standardized word documents for your entities. Although, Word templates do come with some limitations – I won’t go into the details… Read More »
Sometimes I think that Microsoft Cloud is not quite a cloud – it’s, actually, more like an ocean (which is, probably, similar to how things are with other “clouds” to be fair). As an on-premise consultant, I did not use to appreciate the depth of Microsoft cloud at all. As a Power Platform consultant, I… Read More »
Have you tried Power Platform dataflows yet? I would not be too surprised if you have not – I had not tried them until this weekend either. Might not have completely figured them out yet, but here is a quick rundown so far. Basically, a data flow is a ETL process that takes data from… Read More »
Earlier today, a colleague of mine who tends to spend his days developing Power Automate Flows lately showed me something that seemed confusing at first. Now having dug into it a bit more I think it makes sense, but let’s see what you think. Here is a Flow where I have an HTTP Trigger, a… Read More »
Before you read this post, let me suggest two earlier posts first, since they are all part of the same series: OAuth, Implicit Flow, and Authorization Code Flow Power App Portals and Azure AD B2C Power App Portals have identity management functionality available out of the box. What it means is that the portals can… Read More »
The whole reason I started to look into the details of OAuth in the previous post is that I really wanted to see how to set up external identity providers for the portals. There are some great blog posts out there which are describing the process in a step-by-step kind of way with all the… Read More »
If you ever tried registering applications in Azure, you have probably seen the term “implicit flow”. I’ve seen it a few times, and, finally, I’ve figured I need to get to the bottom of it. What I ended up with is the post below – it’s not meant to cover OAuth in details, but it… Read More »
I’ve been trying to catch up on the azure architecture lately using free learning material that Microsoft provides for the related az-300 exam: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/certifications/exams/az-300 There is a lot to catch up on, since it’s definitely not my primary area of expertise, but now that I’m through about a quarter of that course, I can’t help… Read More »
This comes straight from the Power Apps documentation: Default – The initial value of a control before it is changed by the user https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/controls/properties-core Actually, I never bothered to read that definition until recently, and, it seems, there is some discrepancy there. That definition seems to imply that “Default” will only affect your control’s initial… Read More »
