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 »
Microsoft has been implying the existence of “internal makers community” when promoting Power Platform a lot. This is, likely, where all CoE ideas are coming from. This is where fusion teams make more sense. This is what may make it easier for the citizen developers to do their work. And, on a practical note, this… Read More »
Tenant Admins can be restricted from viewing Dataverse data Neither Power Platform Admins, nor Tenant Admins can be restricted from accessing data in Dataverse environments: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/use-service-admin-role-manage-tenant Dynamics 365 administrators can be restricted, though, as long as they have not been added to an Azure AD group that’s been assigned to a given environment.

Earlier this week, I blogged about the solution I was going to upload to git, and, finally, it’s there now. For all the details, please keep reading. However, once and if you wanted to have a look at the solution itself, here is a link: https://github.com/ashlega/SimpleSolutions In the first version, there are only a few… Read More »
As I mentioned in my earlier post, I’ve been trying to sort of eat my own dog food here, and I’ve been finding it rather interesting so far. Or should I say tasty? In this post, I will walk you through the beginning of what I call “Simple Marketing” solution. Which also includes “Simple Support”… Read More »
Here is the answer: It’s a bit counterintuitive, I guess. Imagine you were a system administrator in the environment, and you knew there were “Permissions Test” canvas app in that environment. You might think you’d be able to see it, but, in reality, it might not be showing up: Which would not, really, mean the… Read More »
Recently, I have been working on a training for application users which might be helpful to both users and new model-driven application makers: https://www.itaintboring.com/downloads/training/ModelDrivenApplicationsforApplicationUsers.pdf It is meant to cover model-driven application functionality from the user perspective. To be fair, there is a lot to cover, so this is not going to be absolutely exhaustive, but… Read More »
I was working on a condensed version of the licensing guide which could be presented without really going into the details, and here is what I ended up with so far (this is ignoring Virtual Agents, Power BI, and Portals) A user can get licensed for Power Platform and/or Power Automate through the following means:… Read More »
I have been working on the Power Platform course lately, and a lot of “going back to basics” has been happening along the way. One of the topics which seem to be surprisingly difficult to cover is explaining what Microsoft Dataverse is. Here is how Power Platform docs describe Dataverse: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/data-platform/data-platform-intro “Dataverse lets you securely… Read More »
This post should have been written before the one where I had a sample script which can call a flow to download a document, but, since these two posts happened to come out in the reverse order, it seems this is, technically, a prequel. Hm… If you have not seen the previous post, maybe read… Read More »
