Changing primary owner of your flows in the maker portal is simple – just go there, choose a flow, click “Edit” in the details section, then change the primary owner. This usually makes sense when setting up an application account as a flow owner, since that protects us from unexpected failures if the user-owner leaves… Read More »
We don’t always get to choose the technology we work with in the Power Platform world. Strict security, missing subscriptions, long approvals… if you’ve ever worked on the government projects, you know the drill. However, sometimes, this leads to a very unusual combination of tools and technologies, and, in this series of posts, I’m going… Read More »
Quick note to whoever is reading: this post is a bit of an experiment. It’s useful, but it pretty much sticks to the facts and there is no personal touch. This is intentional, there is another post which explains why Back in October, Microsoft has started rolling out updates to the Dataverse connector which will… Read More »
I’m having a strange dilemma, which is that I think I’m supposed to be using Power Automate as much as I can, but I am just not clear on how to license them now. They would be a better choice for automations: However, if I wanted to do ALM, I’d better have Power Automate flows… Read More »
If you created a very minimal custom connector and looked at the swagger definition right after, you’d notice a bunch of attributes added by default: However, not all of those are literally “required” when creating a new connector. For example, I could have removed “schemes” node, and it would still be acceptable: The problem would occur later,… Read More »

I’ve been trying to figure out the exact definition of what being “in app context” means for Power Automate flows, since that’s where it matters for license enforcement, but every time I seem to come close to having it all figured out, there is always something that does not quite add up. Here is a… Read More »
Hope you have not missed the news – I blogged about it before here, and it’s still coming. Soon enough, you may need to ensure your premium Power Automate flows are either get associated to the apps in order to keep running on the Power Apps licensing plans, or you’ll need to license those flows differently.… Read More »
Just when I thought my recent encounter with the upcoming licensing changes was dramatic enough, it turned out there is more to it. Do you have a project where you’ve been using multiple flows, apps, etc? Then keep reading but be prepared to lose sleep for a bit. Are you just starting a new project? Well, there… Read More »
Not sure if you folks are aware – I was not, not until a few weeks ago when this came up in some discussions with the client, but, apparently, we should really start looking at our integration/migration/and other heavily utilized user accounts to see how many power platform requests are being made daily under those… Read More »
