Lots to cover this month! So, let’s get started with what’s new with Power Platform in October 2021. Release wave 2 has been rolling out, but Microsoft has released some updates above and beyond the release wave. Performance improvements, quality of life improvements, and as always, new Power Automate connectors have been introduced this month….

Automate together Collaboration has now become much easier in Power Automate. The new co-presence feature will allow multiple users to edit a flow simultaneously. If you have ever used Excel or Word online collaboration, you will recognize the new user icons next to the save button that indicate all of the users editing the flow with you. There…

As mentioned last month, the Power Platform release wave two commenced in August. While not all of the planned features were released on schedule, some useful updates were made to model-driven apps. Model-Driven Last month we discussed polymorphic lookups in Dataverse (Preview). This month, the changes come in the form of advanced lookups in model-driven apps. Advanced lookups allow users to…

My kids had soccer (football for the rest of world) tournaments all weekend and…. I am just behind. It happens.  Power Apps: 1 – Paperless…

Surprisingly, there was a lot this month. With Ignite coming in just a few days I am happy to report lots of little new things made their way to preview. Dataverse for Teams got some new pieces, Power BI got more security and a few more fun things. So, give it a read and get…

What a fun month. Why? Because there is no theme. (My 3rd grader has been asking for help on his writing work and they are discussing themes) All of the topics are quick little wins, instead of those months where everything is about one topic. We got stuff for pro developers, kids, Power BI lovers,…

Welcome to 2021. After a crazy year that saw the pace of change in Power Platform accelerate, December was a relatively quiet month. Which was nice and had visions of catching up dancing in my head. Well, that failed, I am as behind as ever. Anyway, you do not care. All you want to know…

This month the theme seems to be the product formally known as Common Data Service. Thankfully they didn’t change its name to a symbol, instead, they now call it Dataverse
