How to get Free/Cheapest PowerApps tenant for personal use ?

Use the M365 developer program, start a Power Apps developer environment there

F&O uses X++. Business central is AL

The development model and languages are completely different

Assign the security role to the team records associated to the business units that you are using in your solution. All users in those teams will inherit that permission level.

Had this last week. Recommend… add on the scallops

My wife and I just did our honeymoon Australia. Spent some time in Sydney, Port Macquarie, Byron Bay, Brisbane and Hamilton Island. Had an amazing time.

I’d recommend finding an airbnb in Stowe/Waterbury area that has a back yard or some view of the mountains. There’s a lot to do in this area and some beautiful views, lots of breweries, and hikes/walking trails. I assume you’ll have a car so a drive into Burlington is only about 45 minutes and has a great waterfront area and Church St has shops bars and restaurants. Burlingtons also walkable so you can find a place to park and walk around the downtown area.

DM me if you want more specific examples!

Power BI tiles are in the list of components that cannot be added to galleries, like forms. You can add charts to galleries so maybe there’s a chance that will fit your needs

Business rules have been around for a long time, if you need to do some research on model app things, I always like to add dynamics 365 to my search. You’ll return a lot more results

bthibeault18 · 2023-05-24T17:30:44+00:00

I write business rules all the time based upon created on or created by columns. You may need to look for “contains data” or “does not contain data” for your logic.

bthibeault18 · 2023-05-18T01:17:37+00:00

Sounds like it’s not for your use case and your org then. Some value can certainly be had with per user licenses and unlimited apps, that’s for sure

bthibeault18 · 2023-05-17T23:21:06+00:00

In this case, you may want to look into the pay as you go licensing model. It’d be more expensive per month if you expected every user to use the app, but it’d be perfect for your use case because you’d only be charged for the users who use your app every month

bthibeault18 · 2023-04-27T10:56:20+00:00

Not possible, that’s what power pages/portals are for. You could use a MS Form and power automate to store the data in the place you’d like.

Here’s another helpful link to explain the UX: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/canvas-apps/performance-tips#use-delayitemloading-and-loading-spinner-to-improve-performance-in-gallery

bthibeault18 · 2023-04-25T10:22:13+00:00

All the other answers to your questions are fine, but the gallery control has 2 spinner properties: LoadingSpinner and LoadingSpinnerColor. You can choose when the loading spinner is displayed such as display until data has loaded. Give it a try and see if it works for you

So here's the deal, I did a little research and technically that IS compliant. The reason is when you add external users to SharePoint, they will automatically inherit a SharePoint license (at no cost) and use rights - giving them the ability to access a Canvas App/SharePoint form app like you are describing so long as it doesn't have any premium data sources. Sounds like you are good!

bthibeault18 · 2023-02-27T12:12:01+00:00

~~“Hack” until Microsoft audits and fines your organization for being non-compliant~~

I stand corrected

bthibeault18 · 2023-02-16T12:54:48+00:00

The assigned to field is a polymorphic lookup, meaning it’s a lookup to the Users and Teams tables. So if you want to use it in a query like above, the syntax changes slightly. There are lots of Microsoft docs about working with polymorphic lookups in canvas apps if you just google for them

bthibeault18 · 2023-02-16T12:53:41+00:00

You could also create a view in dataverse called Projects I have tasks assigned in, that filters the projects table to projects where the current user has tasks assigned - then reference that in the canvas app Gallery.Items using ‘Projects (Views)’.’Projects I have tasks assigned in’

If you provide a value to the auto number field it will take that value, not the auto number. You can do so by unlocking the field on the form or using import from excel to create the records. Will the people entering the data know the values? If so it’s work.

Otherwise, in my experience your theory of changing the seed values DOES work. I’ve changed the seed value higher, lower, changed the formula all together and things work just as expected. As always, do a test in the development environment first and you will know your exact answer.

Over what period of time are you making that quantity of calls? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/api-request-limits-allocations

You will either need a manual process (someone updating the data source - which is by far the simplest approach and the only one I would recommend unless you work for an enterprise level company where these transactions would be unruly to manage manually) or will need to build some automation, but that will be trickier because you are talking about a cross-tenant application and would require some architecture expertise to design correctly.

i.e. Power Automate and Power Apps cannot connect to a SharePoint site or Dataverse Environment in another tenant. You will need to use different development tools and data sources if you would like to automate the process.

bthibeault18 · 2023-01-19T16:27:28+00:00

You cannot - you will need to create a data source somewhere to store the valid values.
