Nikhil Pujar reposted thisNikhil Pujar reposted thisCode apps in Power Apps went GA earlier this year… but there still aren't many complete, real-world examples out there to learn from. So I open-sourced one. Teams Telephony Manager is a real Power Apps code app for managing Microsoft Teams telephony… phone numbers, assignments, policies… built on Dataverse with React + TypeScript, and the full pipeline behind it: Power Automate ingestion, Azure Automation runbooks running Teams PowerShell, and status written back to Dataverse. It's MIT licensed, fully documented, and you can deploy it into your own tenant… there's even a one-prompt GitHub Copilot deployment that walks you through the whole thing. I shared it because when I was learning code apps, I wanted exactly this: a complete, real app to read, not a hello-world. Repo and full write-up in the comments 👇 If you're building code apps, I'd love your feedback… and PRs are welcome. #PowerPlatform #PowerApps #CodeApps #MicrosoftTeams #Dataverse

Nikhil Pujar reposted thisNikhil Pujar reposted thisIf, like me, you've spent this week seeing incredible showcases of Copilot Cowork + D365 ERP, you might be wondering how to connect F&O with Cowork yourself. Here's my guide to all the settings I know of to make it work. Swipe through. A caveat: this is what I know so far. The product is moving fast, so some settings may shift. Shout out to Laze, who helped hunt down some of these toggles! And if you're also doing something awesome with F&O and Copilot Cowork and I didn't mention you, drop a note in the comments. I'd love to see what you're creating! 🤩 👇 Two great showcases that inspired this, in the comments.

Nikhil Pujar reposted thisNikhil Pujar reposted this𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐢𝐚𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐬 𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐲 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐀𝐈 ⚡ Remember spending hours in Visio or Draw.io, dragging boxes and drawing arrows? Those days are over. What if I told you that you could create comprehensive architectural diagrams in seconds? Here's the reality: Traditional diagramming is time-consuming and often outdated the moment you finish. But AI has changed the game completely. Three Game-Changing Scenarios: 🎯 𝐒𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨 𝟏: Pre-Sales & Solution Design You're in a client meeting. They need to see the target architecture NOW. Instead of promising "I'll send it next week," you describe your solution in a prompt, and boom—professional architecture diagram ready to present. 📝 𝐒𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨 𝟐: Code-First Development You've built the application, but now you need the design document for compliance or handover. Simply feed your code to AI—it reads, understands, and generates the architectural diagram automatically. No reverse-engineering headaches. ☁️ 𝐒𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨 𝟑: Existing Infrastructure Documentation Your cloud infrastructure is deployed across AWS, Azure, VMware—wherever. You need to visualize network flows, resource dependencies, or connectivity patterns for audits or optimization. AI scans your existing infrastructure and creates accurate diagrams in seconds. The Impact? ✅ Hours saved on every project ✅ Always up-to-date documentation ✅ Faster client responses ✅ Better team collaboration ✅ Reduced documentation debt I've created a complete guide on this game-changing approach, including: 2 detailed video tutorials with live demos GitHub repository with step-by-step instructions Real-world examples for all three scenarios This isn't just about saving time—it's about transforming how we think about architecture documentation. Ready to revolutionize your workflow? Check out my GitHub repo and video tutorials (link in comments) 👇 What's your biggest pain point with creating architectural diagrams?

Nikhil Pujar liked thisNikhil Pujar liked thisWhat if your entire data stack lived in ONE platform? No more tool-hopping. No more broken pipelines. No more duplicated data fighting itself. Microsoft Fabric just made that real. Here's the full 7-layer architecture — and why it changes everything 👇 🔹 1. Real-Time + Batch Data Event Streams AND structured datasets. Both. Together. One ecosystem. 🔹 2. Data Ingestion Layer Pipelines. Dataflows. Copy Jobs. Data from every source — flowing in seamlessly. 🔹 3. Unified Storage (OneLake) ↳ No silos. ↳ No duplication. ↳ One centralized lake for everything your org produces. This alone replaces 3–4 tools most teams are duct-taping together. 🔹 4. Data Preparation & Transformation Notebooks + Dataflows = clean, structured, ready-to-use data. No more raw data chaos. 🔹 5. Analytics & AI SQL queries → ML models → AI pipelines. All in one place. No context switching. 🔹 6. Visualization & Insights Dashboards. Reports. Real-time monitoring. Decision-makers get answers — not data dumps. 🔹 7. Integration Layer Teams. Power BI. Copilot. Azure. Everything your org already uses — now connected. 💡 Why this actually matters: The #1 problem in enterprise data isn't technology. It's fragmentation. Your ingestion tool doesn't talk to your storage. Your storage doesn't talk to your analytics. Your analytics don't talk to your AI. Fabric breaks that wall down. One platform. One governance model. One source of truth. If you understand this architecture — you understand where data is heading. 🔖 Save this — it's your Microsoft Fabric cheat sheet. 💬 Is your team on Fabric yet?

Calling all Power Apps users! 📣The Power Apps per app plan has been retired...⬇️ The low-cost plan let a user run a single canvas app, model-driven app or portal app for a specific business scenario using the full capabilities of Power Apps. 📱 Existing Enterprise and CSP customers using this licence will see no disruption and can continue to use and renew this SKU after their current agreement ends. For existing MPSA customers, the Power Apps per app plan will no longer be offered. Their agreements will remain active, and they can continue using the Power Apps per app licence until the agreement ends. We've broken down everything you need to know in our blog post, including other licensing options 👉 https://loom.ly/Sb9x2IQ --- This licence may eventually be completely withdrawn at some point in the future, so it is still worth planning ahead.
