I Wish I Would Have Known #24: Bypass User Consent Pop-up

September 12, 2021September 12, 2021Nijo JosephLeave a comment

Every time when a user runs a powerapp with connectors for the first time, they will receive a popup asking their consent to use the connectors in the specific app.

Use the Set-AdminPowerAppApisToBypassConsent cmdlet to bypass this pop-up, so that users are are not required to authorize API connections for the input app. The command changes the bypassConsent flag of an app to true. Using this command, end users will observe consent is bypassed for First Party connectors that support single sign-on and custom connectors that don’t require authentication. This includes custom connectors with or without a gateway. Read more here.

The new modern model-driven app designer has an easy to use interface, and in sync with canvas app designer. However, the preview has the following known limitations.

You can’t add the following model-driven app components:
- URLs
- Business process flows
- Charts
You can’t add more than one area to the app’s navigation site map.
You can’t change the app’s icon.
You can’t specify the app’s URL.

You can use the Switch to classic option to use the classic designer to complete the above app design tasks.

Don’t be like our Buddy in the above comic strip, always check the official docs to see the known limitations, read more here.

I Wish I Would Have Known #11: Unable to add Licensed Users to Power Platform Environments.

May 22, 2021Nijo JosephLeave a comment

Dynamics 365 Enterprise licenses does not include general purpose Power Apps capabilities. Dynamics 365 Enterprise users will continue to be able to run apps and portals that extend and customize the licensed Dynamics 365 application, as long as those apps and portals are located in the same environment as their licensed Dynamics 365 application. Custom apps or portals outside of the Dynamics 365 environment will require a standalone Power Apps license. In short, If a user A has only dynamics 365 license applied, then A can be added only to environments which has at least one Dynamics 365 App installed. Read more here.
