🥇 Cover Story

Sometimes, project requirements can take an interesting turn, and we may need to think of unusual solutions. Fortunately, we have powerful options up the sleeve, since, after all, we are not talking about some kind of a csv file here – it’s Microsoft Dataverse!

💎 Model Driven Apps & Dataverse

Business Process Flow (BPF) is a very useful tool to standardize data entry on a model driven app. In simple cases, a linear BPF is a good option. However, in more complex scenarios, a BPF can be enhanced by using branching. Mehdi discusses this in his blog.

🏋️‍♂️ Canvas Apps

Warren Belz shows us how to create a canvas app that can open an attachment instead of downloading it.

Warren Belz struck again with another post. This time he explains how to prevent user from entering special characters in a text input.

🐱‍🏍 Power Automate

Debajit demonstrates how to get index number in a loop when working in Cloud Flows.

Security is a big concern among organizations around the globe. For this reason, Microsoft provides all sorts of security measures that companies adopt to protect their services. Eickhel in this post shows how to get IP addresses to white list any request from a Cloud Flow.

🚀 Power Apps Component Framework (PCF)

Temmy shows us how to utilize bootstrap (or any other libraries) in PCF project.

🌎 Power Apps Portals

Alex shows how to implement caching in header and footer in Power Apps Portal.

In this blog post, Ritika will walk through the steps that can be followed to create a customized experience for the users to view notes and attachments in Power Apps Portals.

When registering on the portal, users are, normally, redirected to the profile page by default. It seems, though, this is not, really, configurable, through the portal settings, so Alex shows you the workaround?
