{Do you know} Dynamics 365 Customer Insights Increase control and flexibility when attaching to data in Microsoft Dataverse

Hello Everyone,

Today I am going to share my thoughts on preview feature Dynamics 365 Customer Insights Increase control and flexibility when attaching to data in Microsoft Dataverse.

Let’s get’s started.

Certainly! Let’s explore how you can enhance your data management in Microsoft Dataverse within Dynamics 365 Customer Insights.

Improved Dataverse Connector for Customer Insights

The Dataverse Connector has undergone significant enhancements, providing you with more control and flexibility when importing data into Customer Insights – Data. Here are the key features:

1. Performance Improvements: You can now smoothly import large Dataverse tables into Customer Insights – Data, eliminating previous scale and performance limitations. This mean faster data ingestion and processing.

2.Selective Table Import: Say goodbye to read-only mandatory table selections! With the updated connector, you have full control over which Dataverse tables you want to use in Customer Insights. No more forced selections, pick only the ones relevant to your needs.

3.Column-Level Customization: Choose the specific column you want to process and output in Customer Insights. Tailor your data import by selecting only the relevant fields from your Dataverse tables.

4.Advanced Row Filters: Apply filters to exclude inactive records or include only those added or modified within a specific time frame (e.g., the last year). Fine tune your data selection based on your business requirements.

How to connect to Dataverse in Customer Insights

1. Navigate to Data > Data Sources.

2. Click Add a data source.

3. Select Microsoft Dataverse.

4.Provide a Name and an optional Description for the data source.

5. Enter the Server address for your Dataverse organization and sign in.

6. Choose the tables you want to import from the list.

7. Save your selection to start syncing the chosen tables from Dataverse.

Remember that Dataverse tables with change tracking enabled are visible, you can easily connect them to Customer Insights. If you encounter any issues, check the change tracking settings for your custom tables in Power Apps.

By leveraging these improvements, you’ll have a more efficient and customizable data integration experience.

That’s it for today.

I hope this helps.

Difference between Dataverse N:N vs Choice vs Manual N:N

Hello Everyone,

Today I am going to share my thoughts on Dataverse N:N vs Choice vs Manual N:N

Let’s get’s started.

Let’s delve into the difference between Dataverse N:N, Choice and Manula N:N relationships:

1. Dataverse N:N (Many to Many) Relationships:

Definition: In Dataverse, N:N relationship allows for a many to many association between two tables.

Hierarchy: Unlike 1:N (one to many) relationships, N:N relationships do not establish an explicit hierarchy between rows.

Configuration:

No Lookup columns or behaviors need to be configured.

Rows created using N:N relationships are considered peers, and the relationship is reciporal.

Storage:

A relationship (or intersect) table stores the data that associates the two tables.

This table has a one to many relationship with both related tables and only stores the necessary values to define relationship.

Custom column cannot be added to the relationship table, and it is not visible in the user interface.

Creation:

Choose the two tables you want to participate in the relationship.

Decide how you want the respective lists to be available within the navigation for each table.

Note that not all tables can be used with N:N relationships.

Designers:

Power Apps Portal: Provides an easy streamlined experience but lacks some special settings.

Solution explorer: Offers more flexibility for less common requirements.

You can also create N:N relationships by importing a solution or using Metadata Services.

Use Cases: Ideal for scenarios where multiple records from both tables need to be associated(e.g., Opportunities and competitors in Dynamics 365 Sales).

2. Choice Relationships:

Usage: Commonly used when dealing with a single table and static choices.

Configuration: Choice are predefined and do not involve complex relationships.

Example: If you have a dropdown field with fixed options(e.g., “High”, “Medium”, “Low”), you’re using a choice relationship.

3. Manual N:N Relationships:

Definition: These are created manually without relying on the built in intersect entity.

Configuration:

You create your own intersect entity to establish the many to many relationship.

Provide more control over the relationship behavior.

Use Cases: Useful when you need custom logic or additional fields in the intersect entity.

In Summary, choose the relationship type based on your specific requirements: Dataverse N:N for true many to many associations, choice for simple predefined options, and manual N:N when customizing the relationship behavior.

That’s it for today.

I hope this helps.
