Topics
Using Azure AI in Low Code Solutions en de
Generative AI and its possibilities are fascinating. But how can this technology be implemented quickly in a company? How about a low-code solution? That's right, such a solution makes AI tangible. Whether it's chat completion with GPT and Azure OpenAI or Azure AI Document Intelligence, anything is possible.
All of these services have an API that we can use in Power Apps or Power Automate Flows. In my talk, I explain the basics of these services. Furthermore, I demonstrate how to create HTTP requests and build custom connectors. I show simple examples of solutions and explain how they can be realised in the shortest possible time.
Get inspired!

Verwendung von Azure AI in Low-Code-Lösungen en de
Die generative KI und ihre Möglichkeiten sind faszinierend. Doch wie kann man diese Technologie schnell im Unternehmen einsetzen? Wie wäre es denn mit einer Low-Code-Lösung? Richtig, eine solche Lösung macht KI greifbar. Egal ob Chat-Completion mit GPT und Azure OpenAI oder Azure AI Document Intelligence, alles ist möglich.
All diese Services besitzen eine API, die wir in Power Apps oder Power Automate Flows verwenden können. In meinem Vortrag erkläre ich die Grundlagen dieser Dienste. Mehr noch, ich demonstriere wie man HTTP-Anfragen erstellt und benutzerspezifische Konnektoren verwendet. Ich zeige einfache Lösungsbeispiele und erkläre, wie sie in kürzester Zeit realisiert werden.
Lassen Sie sich inspirieren!
Power Platform ALM en de
In my presentation, I will explain the basics of a well-structured development process through Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) for the Power Platform. You will learn how to organize components in solutions and understand the purpose of environment variables and connection references.
Additionally, I will introduce helpful tools like Microsoft's Power Platform Pipelines, which enable you to transport solutions between Dataverse environments even without technical expertise.
Whether you are a professional or a citizen developer, everyone can benefit from a well-structured development process and ALM.
Power Platform ALM en de
In meinem Vortrag erkläre ich die Grundlagen eines ordentlichen Entwicklungsprozesses durch Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) für die Power Platform. Sie erfahren, wie Sie Komponenten in Lösungen organisieren können und Sie lernen, wozu Umgebungsvariablen dienen und Verbindungsreferenzen nützlich sind.
Abschließend stelle ich ihnen hilfreiche Tools wie Microsofts Power Platform Pipelines vor. Sehen Sie, wie der Transport von Lösungen zwischen Dataverse-Umgebungen auch ohne technisches Know-how möglich ist.
Egal, ob Profi oder Citizen Developer, jeder profitiert von einem ordentlichen Entwicklungsprozess und strukturiertem ALM.
ALM für Citizen Developers & Admins en
Pipelines in der Power Platform eines der Highlights des letzten Jahres. Sie senken die Einstiegshürde für Application Lifecycle Management in Dataverse.
In meiner Session lernt ihr dieses neue Feature kennen. ich zeige euch, wie ihr eure Power Apps und Power Automate Flows verpackt, Power Pipelines einrichtet, verwendet und eure Lösungen von eurer Entwicklungsumgebung über Test in die Produktiv-Umgebung transportiert.
The Power of Virtual Tables en
Virtual Tables are amazing and that's a fact! A great example is Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and it's integration story. That opens lots of possibilities for real world business cases.
On the other hand, this technology is so cool that you are able to integrate also data providers outside of Microsoft's universe. Let's imagine my external data is hosted in AWS Cloud. I show you a way to make this data available in Dataverse and Dataverse for Teams. You think that even a combination with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central data is impossible - no, it is not.
There are many business cases where virtual tables can be the cornerstone. Join my session to see what is possible!
Various flavors of Power Platform ALM en
Application Lifecycle Management is important and helps to nurture and govern your Dataverse environments. Whether you are Pro or Citizen Developer, everyone is part of this process. What differs are the tools and technologies.
In my session I will explain some necessary basics important for all your stakeholders. Furthermore, I show multiple ways to apply this process. Start with "In-Product-ALM" by using "Power Pipelines" to a professional approach with the ALM Accelerator for Power Platform (AA4PP from CoE Starter Kit) involving Azure DevOps.
Microsoft Power Platform Center of Excellence (CoE) Starter Kit en
Microsoft say's: "The Center of Excellence (CoE) Starter Kit is an open source set of templates that are designed to help develop a strategy for adopting, maintaining and supporting the Power Platform, with a focus on Power Apps and Power Automate" but what does it mean?
Join my session to get an understanding of the included CoE Starter Kit solutions and components. I will explain and demonstrate, how you can use the included Power Apps and Power BI reports to manage and maintain your growing Dataverse.
ALM Accelerator for Power Platform [CoE Starter Kit] en
Microsoft's Center of Excellence Starter Kit provide amazing components to leverage the adoption, administration, governance and nurturing of the Power Platform. An important one is the ALM Accelerator for Power Platform. This solution helps Makers as well as Pro-Developers to establish an enterprise grade Application Lifecycle Management process for their Dataverse solutions.
In my session you gain a brief understanding of the ALM basics in Dataverse. I will explain why it makes sense to have a clear environment strategy. Furthermore I'll show you, how I use solutions to pack and transport my PowerApps and Power Automate flows between my Dataverse environments. After clarifying these concepts, I will give you a deep-dive into Microsoft's ALM Accelerator for Power Platform. I explain in demos, how a fully automated ALM process works.
90 Minutes Session
Power Automate Flows as API en
With Power Platform, you can accelerate the implementation of new ideas. In other words, not everything has to be programmed as an App Service, you can use Power Automate Flows instead.
But what do you do when you just need a reliable endpoint or interface to another application?
In my session, I will demonstrate how you can create an API using API Management Gateway. I explain how to transform API calls using policies and forward them to Power Automate Flows.
Of course, there are other considerations why and when you can use such techniques.... more about this in my session!
