Dynamics 365 and Power Platform developers should always use Business Rules over JavaScript / TypeScript form functions. Full stop. However, there are situations where the native capabilities within Business Rules are not up to scratch, such as when you start working with multi-select option set fields…
By configuring your canvas app form control to display the record you've just created automatically, you can provide a helpful step for the users of your app. In this week's blog post, I'll show you the steps involved to achieve this requirement.
Are you considering enabling Security Defaults on your Azure Active Directory tenant? If so, you may want to think twice before flipping that button so that you can prepare for the potential disruption involved...
Application users within Dynamics 365 / the Common Data Service arguably provide a far superior option when compared to traditional service accounts with a user name and password. In today's post, we'll dive and find out more about them.
The Dynamics 365 / Common Data Service Web API allows developers to leverage a wide variety of functionality, from almost any conceivable location - such as, for example, an Azure Data Factory V2 pipeline. With this in mind, let’s dive in and see how to achieve this.
This week, we resume my series focusing on Microsoft exam MB-440, by taking a deep dive look at Business Process Flows, a powerful tool that allows you to mirror any process within a model-driven Power App.
If developers cannot deploy their code locally, then there’s a significant problem here that needs addressing. That’s why, in the context of SQL Server database development, the use of a publish profile becomes almost essential, by allowing you to ignore problematic components, such as Active Directory scoped user credentials.
Complex integration pieces that involve on-premise systems can be difficult to scope out and implement. One of the benefits of working with the Microsoft cloud is that there are multiple tools available to help us in this regard. Figuring out the correct one to use, though, can be a challenge…
OAuth authentication, especially involving the Common Data Service or Dynamics 365, is a subject you may not grasp fully the first time around. The technical setup required can be tricky to understand or even implement at all, meaning you find yourself dealing with error codes such as AADSTS65001.
For an exam like MB-400, which targets developers building code-heavy solutions targeting Dynamics 365 or the Power Platform, you'd expect Microsoft to skip a topic like Business Rules entirely. However, they are very much a feature you should use and fully understand.
