Toronto Power Platform World Tour

The journey to digitize, automate and surface actionable insights is a challenge many companies face. Constraints in budget, resources and timelines often slow this journey to a halt - if they begin at all. However, Microsoft continues to evolve the Power Platform (PowerApps, Flow, PowerBI) to help you along your journey and create solutions to transform the way people work in an incredible efficient manner.

It's time that we create some best practices for developing on the Power Platform! This session overviews some of the current favorites picked up from colleagues and experts around the world. When should we create new model-driven apps to serve different business functions? How should old time Dynamics lovers think about solutions when working in PowerApps? What's the best way to bring order to Flow in an enterprise environment? We'll explore questions like this, and learn from one another.

You've just built your first "Hello, World!" flow. Now it's time to get serious. One thing you need to consider is your error handling... because errors happen whether you like it or not. At times you may be able to capture errors and correct them before they cause a problem, while other times you wont.
In this session, I'll be discussing techniques to identify errors, correct them in run-time, and report on them in various ways. If your Flows affect how your users work, then you shouldn't miss this session.
