XrmToolBox: AutoNumberUpdater - new StateCode filter

Flows not triggering after environment copy

Having read this nice tip from Ankita Chavan posted here https://crmtipoftheday.com/1351/flows-not-triggering-after-an-environment-copy/ it did not resolve our problem. Our instance was not in administration mode and it still did not work. This forced me to create a ticket with Microsoft to solve this issue.

Here are the troubleshooting notes:
- you have flows with a CDS trigger
- none of them are working
- the flows are team flows - connection owned by a different user
- we have created a new CDS flow - it worked
- we have exported an old CDS flow and used the current user's connection and it worked
- you remembered you have copied another org over the current environment

Delete the trigger and recreate it
Internally it was checked with MS team and it seems since it's a CDS trigger copying another environment over the current one will not be supported for the trigger.
What will happen if you copy a different environment over, first all the triggers will be deleted and the other's environment's triggers will be copied on top of this.
So a copy with flows is not supported at the moment.
Then as a workaround if this happens what you can do is delete the triggers you have in that CDS and disable/enable the flows again to recreate the triggers.

Yet Another Address Autocomplete PCF Control–powered by Bing

In this blog post I will not go into detail in how to install all the pre-requisites that are required to build and run PCF controls. My goal was to build a new PCF control and get into coding of PCF controls as fast as possible. Here are a few links to articles that will help you installing the pre-requisites (Microsoft PowerApps CLI)  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/component-framework/get-powerapps-cli Other good references to get into this topic: https://toddbaginski.com/blog/how-to-create-a-powerapps-pcf-control/ https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/component-framework/create-custom-controls-using-pcf I looked through the Guido Preite’s https://pcf.gallery/ which will help you find appropriate use cases / examples for your own needs. It did not take very long to find a simple example to start with: Andrew Butenko's https://pcf.gallery/address-autocomplete/ A few moments later I had the idea to create yet another address autocomplete...

Power Automate: Avoid Apply to Each for List rows action (DataVerse)

If you do not want to use the Apply to Each loop after a Dataverse List rows action you can use the following in a Dynamic Content / Expression box to directly use a field's value in e.g. Compose action: first(outputs('List_rows')?['body/value'])?['apx_fullpath'] instead of apx_fullpath you can use whatever field name you need for the entity that's been queried before.

How to add your personal PowerBI Dashboard as a system dashboard

New Approach: Attention: Microsoft added this feature out of the box, so that the manual approach below is not required anymore.

With some tweaks you can manage it to make it work… 1. After you have created your personal dashboard you need to extract the formxml of that dashboard with this URL query in a browser tab: https://org.crm4.dynamics.com/api/data/v9.1/userforms?$select=name,formxml&$filter=type eq 103 and name eq 'Ticket Status' Replace… type = 103 => PowerBi Dashboard name = 'Your PowerBI Dashboard Name' In the result copy the XML part out of the "formxm...
