A relatively new feature within Dynamics 365 Sales is to the ability to generate PDF documents for common entities, via dedicated buttons on forms. But what if you want to disable this functionality? As it turns out, we don't need the Ribbon Workbench to do this…
Power Apps Component Framework (PCF) controls are a new, shiny, thing that Power Platform / Dynamics 365 developers can work with. They are also a subject area within Microsoft exam MB-400. Therefore, in my next post on my series targeting this exam, let’s see how they work.
It's taken seven posts into my MB-400 developer's exam series for us to start talking about our first code related topic, client-side scripting using JavaScript or TypeScript. And, as we'll see, this is something you should only really resort to after thoroughly exhausting the capabilities within Business Rules…
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…
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.
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.
Traditionally, Dynamics CRM developers would find themselves constrained by the capabilities within traditional workflows. With some of the exciting innovations that Power Automate brings to the fore, it becomes possible to do some pretty amazing things, which is why they are a central topic for exam MB-400…
In last week's post in my MB-400 exam series, we saw how you can use model-driven apps to build data-driven applications. The other type of Power Apps - canvas apps - throws this approach completely on its head, by providing a wholly tailorable visual and data access experience.
It's week 3 in my series all about Microsoft Exam MB-400 and, this time around, we take a deep dive look into the various components that make up a model-driven Power App – with another instructional video to help you along.
