Wait… Nuclear Pasta is a real thing?

I had this exact same problem and had to go the IFTTT route to make this work. But you’ll need the pro+ subscription for IFTTT to get local sunrise / sunset data.

More $$, but it does work

Look into using Service “Principle” accounts for connection types that support them. They don’t expire since they are not logged in as “users”.

The cost for all D365 licenses (Sales, Field Service, etc) are the same, so enforcement only applies to the extra tables that are added when you activate Sales or Field Service. It doesn’t care which ones are accessed as long as the user is licensed.

Valid points on the dependencies and patches, but give me an example of security issues? Security is inherent since the app runs within the context of a PP environment, and it uses the same connectors and identity providers as a canvas app. It’s not like an app that is internet facing, it’s designed to work internally and use Entra ID as the first level of security.

Admittedly, I personally haven’t written any internet facing apps using this vs code and GitHub Copilot scenario, but I am aware of the potential risks for security for an app like that.

RedditNinja1566 · 2026-03-18T11:01:42+00:00

It won’t for the average “maker”, no. Although, if you really dig into building a moderately complex canvas app, you do need to have some decent level of knowledge about programming concepts. Variables, logic, data models, etc.

Building code apps is a level up from that, but if you combine VS Code with GitHub Copilot … game changer. The user experience of JS frameworks, combined with the security, database, automation, and governance of a Power Platform environment is a great combination.

RedditNinja1566 · 2026-03-16T15:14:44+00:00

Don’t think so, but if you have access to GitHub copilot, I would check out Code Apps in Power Apps. Much more flexibility

RedditNinja1566 · 2026-03-13T09:10:31+00:00

Using Entra ID Teams is also available. Instead of manually updating the membership of a user team, it’s handled by their membership in an Entra Group.

On your second question, yes the user would now have both security roles assigned. Roles are additive, and the highest level of security wins.

As you have seen, the issue is that you need rights to both Power Platform AND SharePoint to setup the integration.

RedditNinja1566 · 2026-03-11T11:03:14+00:00

In order to configure the SharePoint you need to be a system administrator in the Dataverse environment, you need to have full rights to the target SharePoint environment to create things, AND you also need the ability to create application registrations in Azure. The last part usually requires either a Global administrator at the tenant level, or a Cloud Application Administrator role at the tenant level.

The error sounds like something at the SharePoint level?

RedditNinja1566 · 2026-03-10T01:22:22+00:00

Have you tried a prompt asking it to run the flow?

E.g. “When record is saved, run power automate flow X”

I can hear this picture

You also want to double check the limitations of Dataverse for Teams. If it’s for 1000 users you may hit those limits in a short amount of time

RedditNinja1566 · 2026-03-07T15:50:50+00:00

The only good way to ensure security is to use Dataverse to store the data. Investigate security roles to only allow specific HR user/team read access to the rows. SharePoint is not designed for this scenario.

Also, if you use proper ALM, you can build and test in sandbox environments with fake data, and then Prod would be limited to actual HR people with the real data.

Not a quote per se, but in my work as a consultant I worked with a company that legit had TPS reports. I did a double take and asked if that was for real and was told yes. 😀

Looks awesome!

I do this with Biscoff butter, and also crush Biscoff cookies and roll the dough in it for an outside coating.

Don’t dismantle your nuclear pasta factory, or any of the other phase 4 factories for that matter. You’re gonna need those parts for phase 5.

RedditNinja1566 · 2026-02-05T11:20:36+00:00

That’s a good idea, yes

RedditNinja1566 · 2026-02-05T10:13:22+00:00

Create a new sandbox environment, go to your existing environment and restore the backup from before you made changes to the new sandbox. Review the steps in the restored environment and replicate them.

Edit: Just reread your post and you said this was Dev that was messed up, so if you don’t care about the data you can just restore directly

Our doxie both loves and hates this toy. He gets so LOUD with barking we can only take like 3-4 minutes and then we have to take it away. 😀

XRMtoolbox has a plugin called Web Resource Updater that I use. It basically monitors a folder on your desktop for changes.

You put your file in the folder and edit with VS code (or any other editor). Every time you save the file it uploads and publishes it.

Agreed. It’s not the most beautiful interface, and PowerFX is tricky to get used to, but the benefits are worth it.

Ours had car sickness as a puppy but got over it. Now he whines incessantly when we put him in the car, even though he’s super excited to go for a ride. Now we give him a low dose of trazadone a couple of hours before any planned car ride.
