It's Power Automate not Power Integrate 😬

17:15 - 18:00 Room 0.94+0.95 (110) Back to event schedule

As a Power Platform developer did you ever find yourself building integrations between Dataverse and other systems using Power Automate? It's right there, it's easy to do, it has tons of connectors, and Microsoft promotes it as part of their integration story. It's an obvious choice! 👍

Well maybe. But I would wager that you already have - or probably will run into problems like this with Power Automate integrations at some point:
🛑 Problems with user accounts/connections
💩 Too many API calls
🤬 Unperforming and long-running integrations
🤦‍♂️ Logging and debugging in a "Blackbox"

This session was born from painful learned real-life lessons which I want to share with everybody. There is a reason "Integration" is not part of the product name and together we will discover why and also what alternatives can be. Expect an interactive session with lots of audience engagement so bring your best Power Automate integration stories as well! 🙂

After this session, you will take these things with you:
✅ When to use Power Automate and when not
❗ Common pitfalls to look out for
👉 What alternatives there are
