How to Secure a Dataverse Plug-in with Managed Identity using Plugin Identity Manager for XrmToolBox

Sun, 03 Nov 2024 19:41:42 +0000

The ability to assign managed identities to Dataverse plug-ins was recently introduced in the Power Platform and was received with waves of likes and thumbs up from the Power Platform community.

Rightfully so, this powerful feature enables Dataverse plug-ins to securely connect with Azure resources without the hassle of managing credentials.

However, due to technical constraints and limited documentation, setting up plug-in managed identities is not that straightforward and can prove to be a daunting process, even for seasoned Power Platform developers.

Finance and Operations Virtual Entity Manager for XrmToolBox

As Microsoft pursues its One Dynamics, One Platform initiative, substantial investments are made to integrate the D365 Finance and Operations suite with the Power Platform and Dataverse.

These includes the ability to surface most F&O tables as virtual entities in Dataverse. Bringing full CRUD capabilities, but also opening up the whole Power Platform ecosystem to consume and act on F&O data. Think Power Automate, Model-driven and Canvas Apps, PCF Controls, Power Pages, etc.

PCF control - Generate Shields.IO Badges in the PowerPlatform

Thu, 07 Apr 2022 02:49:10 +0000

One of the thing I like the most about PCF controls for the PowerPlatform is the ability to change the normal behavior and rendering of forms attributes to add a new twist to the user experience.

With that in mind, for my latest communityPCF control, ShieldsIO.Badge.PCF, I wanted to bring the ability to render custom (and awesome ) Shields.IO badges to the PowerPlatform.

Using badges in Model-driven or Canvas Apps forms is a great way to provide concise, actionable and visually appealing controls to end users.

Better UX with a Lookup Dropdown PCF Control

Thu, 06 Jan 2022 02:35:50 +0000

One of the most anticipated feature of the PowerApps Control Framework (PCF) last year was the Lookup datatype support. Hence the ability to bind a PCF control to a Lookup field in a Dataverse Model-Driven form to customize it’s behavior.

The feature was released last summer (see official post) and the first idea that came to my mind was to create a PCF control that renders a lookup field as a dropdown list instead of the of the out-of-the-box lookup selector.
