Hello Everyone,

Today i will show improved UX on sharing records in Model Driven Apps.

Lets gets started.

Suppose you want to share a record you own to specific people in a email link.

Now with Improved UX fron Microsoft, thanks to Microsoft for making easy sharing feature for the users.

So open your model driven app and share the lead with your colleague.

Click on the share button and then click on the Email link icon.

If you want to share with Specific people then click on the “People with existing access”

Then click on the specific people and click apply.

Search for the people you want to share and click send.

Note: the user who is being shared record to will only get read access based on the previleges they have on the table.

Also if you want to revoke access then click on share and “manage access” and remove access.

I hope this helps,

Implement Healthy Project and Solution ALM

uk365guy April 29, 2023 Blog

Hello Everyone,

Today i am going to share few point which helps in implementing successful ALM in your organisation.

Lets gets started.

Conflict and merge resolution:

Suppose multiple developers working on the solution, it is important to have clear idea of who is working on which component.

So it is important to have an idea of which pieces will be merged and which pieces will be worked bu single developer.

Branching strategy:

Branching strategy should make sure while working on next version you can service an existing release.

Environment Strategy:

Each developer should have own developer environment when multiple developers work on same application.

So always make sure the development environment is from latest build.

Note: only required unmanaged solutions installed and all dependent solutions are installed as managed.

Power Apps component library:

Components are reusable building blocks for canvas apps so that app

makers can create controls to use inside an app, or across apps using the component library.

I hope this helps.

Lets gets started.

Login into Power Automate here

First choose manual trigger flow.

Then initialize variable “department” and choose Type as “string”.

Then select “List rows” which is for list invoices.

In the table name column choose “Invoices” and in the filter rows paste the “schema name” of the business unit field not equal to null from the invoice.

As the business unit field is already exists in the invoice table, the purpose of this flow is o update the invoices records, copy the values from the department “option set” field value and update in business unit lookup field.

Once that’s done, choose the “apply to each” and then “set a variable” with the “department” which we already initalize before and the
