I have changed the name of the newsletter to “Power Platform Developers Weekly” but the content will still be the same.
Last week as mentioned in earlier issue, community hosted #PowerApps call was conducted and in case you missed it, find the recording here. While we are talking about Power Apps, Microsoft has released a troubleshooting guide for Ribbons on Model-driven Apps, so take a look at it.
Recently, articles around monitoring Power Platform were posted on Microsoft blog which are listed below:
- Canvas Driven Apps – Power Apps AnalyticsModel Driven Apps – Common Data Service for AnalyticsPower Automate – Power Automate AnalyticsPower Virtual Agents – Analytics
