#POWERPLATFORM
From the makers of "Microsoft Teams team" come 2 new names for the Power Platform vocabulary:
"App Builder app"
"Workflows Agent workflows"
Featuring Microsoft 365 Copilot, of course.😏
App Insights. Connect your Power Apps to Application Insights. It gives you telemetry on user behavior. "Nobody is clicking the 'Submit' button." Maybe it's because the button is off-screen on an iPad? App Insights tells you what users do, not what they say.
You can't make this s*** up:
Monday: Microsoft silently replaces the #PowerAutomate cloud flow designer with a "new" version. Everybody hates it, nothing fits on a screen anymore, performance is awful on bigger flows.
Wednesday: Microsoft reverts things back to the new designer that GA'd in Nov 2023 and still had issues compared to the classic one.
All because they're hell-bent on making flows a child feature of Copilot Studio as Agent Flows.
We moved the logic of our FinModeler financial modeling app, built in #PowerApps, to use the new Dataverse SDK for Python.
It used to take ~10 minutes to generate the full Excel workbooks with dynamic formulas. Now, the same output takes a few seconds.🤯
Yeah, using Office Scripts and Excel as the engine originally was a bit crazy. But it was the #lowcode way for us #PowerPlatform folks. Now, with #Dataverse, #Python and some Azure Functions, we're on another level.💪

Some Power Automate JSON queries look completely wrong, but Power Automate runs them anyway!
I used #ChatGPT to explore how far this goes and uncovered 45 valid query patterns, including several I wouldn’t expect to work. This explains why.
I can't recall seeing Microsoft product teams mess up the Dataverse table settings this badly before. What they've managed to do with the latest Microsoft Planner update is a cautionary tale of how a small code change (by an AI agent?) can wreak havoc:

🟩 Autofill Columns with List Formatting & Pollinations.ai
Chris Kent demos autofill columns and Pollinations.ai for auto images 🔹
Demo from the Microsoft 365 and Power Platform community call.
Autofill uses natural language prompts to populate metadata fields.
JSON list formatting adds custom visuals without changing data.
Pollinations.ai can generate AI images from metadata for richer views.
💡 Autofill driven metadata
🔍 JSON based visual formatting
⚖️ AI image generation from metadata

Governance is the backbone of Power Platform security; neglect it, and you invite chaos. The platform’s controls work, but only if you do, too. Learn how governance keeps your security posture unbreakable.

Power Automate can read up to 100,000 Excel rows, but in scheduled flows this is capped at 5,000. Here’s why and a simple parent/child flow workaround to read large Excel tables on a schedule. #PowerAutomate #Excel #SharePoint #PowerPlatform #Microsoft
🟪 The Death of Manual Docs: DevOps for Power Platform
Stop manual docs—automate documentation from Azure DevOps solutions into Markdown, diagrams, and Word as part of CI/CD pipelines. This demo shows Power Platform Build Tools and community extensions producing living, version-controlled docs tied to solution metadata. Benefits include fewer errors, faster releases, and stronger governance across DEV→TEST→PROD.
💡 Auto-generate docs from solution metadata
🔍 Integrates with Azure DevOps pipelines and build tools
⚖️ Versioning, traceability, and governance

Microsoft Pipelines for Power Platform is finally killing the "Export/Import Zip" chaos. 📦 If you are still manually downloading solution zip files to move from Dev to Prod, you are choosing to work harder. The in-product deployment pipelines are free (mostly) and reduce deployment errors by 90%. Use them.
🟪 Power Platform Code Interpreter: Python in Prompts
Power Platform now runs Python inside prompts—transform CSVs into structured Excel reports and charts within Power Automate flows, no custom code required. 💡
💡 🚀 Enable Code Interpreter in Copilot Studio to run Python on CSV/Excel/PDF inputs.
🔍 Automate file processing, generate charts, and update Dataverse inside agent flows.
⚖️ Reduce manual work and cut costs—agents can make workflows ~30% cheaper.

🟩 Stop Clicking Export — Dataverse + Azure DevOps
Ready to ditch manual "Export Solution"? I watched a concise tutorial that shows how Azure DevOps pipelines enable traceable, automated Power Apps deployments. 🚀
💡 Automate deployments with clean commits—no XML chaos
🔍 Sync work items and statuses between ADO and Dataverse
⚖️ Improve visibility, reporting, and compliance
Environment Variables for Data Source connection strings. Hardcoding SharePoint URLs in your Power App? 🚩 What happens when Dev moves to Test? Use Env Vars. The app automatically points to the new site. Magic.

Even the strongest locks mean nothing if the doors are left wide open. Power Platform’s built-in security is only as strong as the governance practices protecting it. Without governance, you’re just hoping for the best. Here’s why that’s not enough.
