Dynamic second stage approvals using Approvals in Power Automate

Categories:

Automation, JSON, Power Automate, PowerPlatform

by

A member of my team recently came across an interesting customer requirement that didn’t seem to have an easy solution using the out of the box Approvals process in Power Automate. The process on the surface seemed fairly simple, but the execution certainly proved less so! Picture the following approval process: User submits a Document …

The problem of storing App credentials in Azure Runbooks

Categories:

by

The problem of storing App Credentials in Azure Runbooks Back when SharePoint on-premises was all the rage, there was always a need to provide a way of automating script actions for a number of reasons.

I’ve been working with Microsoft Teams for sometime now and it’s having  massive impact both within my own team at work (reducing e-mail and expanding collective and accessible knowledge through the persistent conversation) and with my customers.

Configuring your tenant Conditional Access for Site Sensitivity Labels in Office 365

Categories:

SharePoint

by

In my post yesterday about the public preview of Site Sensitivity Labels in office 365, I said I’d do another post about how these work and what’s required to get these working in your tenant. This is kind of important as the current documentation does NOT tell you what to configure in Conditional Access to …

Using PowerAutomate to deploy PowerAutomate (Flow deploying Flow)… Sounds like Inception?

Categories:

by

Cobb: “Once an idea has taken hold of the brain it’s almost impossible to eradicate. An idea that is fully formed – fully understood – that sticks; right in there somewhere.” I’ve not been using Power Automate heavily in recent projects, just the odd small workflow here and there, but just recently a colleague asked …

For those of you that are connected to me socially or read my previous blog post about disruptive technology in Helsinki, you’ll know that 2019 ended on a bit of a health downer.

Passing a Param object to a SharePoint PowerApp list form and why it doesn’t work.

Categories:

jQuery/Javascript, JSLink, PowerApps, SharePoint, SharePoint Online

by

I spent a lot of my time with SharePoint classic, building small business apps using JSLink and JavaScript embedded in the pages. Nothing really fancy, just things like pre-populating fields for Parent/Child relationship lists and things like that. As I was thinking about writing a conference session on updating old solutions into the modern world, …
