By the Power of Grayskull, I Have the Power(-apps)!

Thursday, Aug 15 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM Room D2

Description

Overseeing operations at Castle Grayskull presents its unique challenges. While Prince Andrew valiantly battles against dark magic and terrifying creatures, my battlefield lies within these walls, ensuring the seamless operation of our castle. Ever considered the administrative side of heroism? For example, every time someone is injured on the job, we're responsible for filling out Form 301 and submitting it to OSHA. And that's just a glimpse of our duties—don't even get me started on Eternia's tax code.

To streamline these administrative tasks, I've turned to Power Apps. Sure, we could build a highly scalable, enterprise grade application with an Angular front end and C# microservices, but that's like using a Battle Cat to swat a fly.

I invite you to join me on an enlightening journey through the Power Platform. We'll begin with exploring our OSHA Workplace Injury Tracking application, delving into its construction and how you can build similar tools. We'll dive into the integration of Azure functions and Power Automate, mastering the art of navigating through hellish government APIs. Along the way, we'll celebrate the triumphs of business process automation. For those with an eye for gold, we'll demystify the labyrinthine nature of Power Platform licensing.

With these fabulous secrets revealed, you, brave warriors of code, are destined to rise as the most powerful coders in the Dataverse!
