How to use websockets for real time updates in your Power Apps. I created a Socket.io server that broadcast messages when a new parking ticket record is created from a Canvas App. The broadcast triggers the model-driven app screens to refresh linkedin.com/posts/joegill_p…

I rebuilt my Power Apps canvas time tracker in Microsoft Copilot Code in under an hour, on the same Dataverse tables. The trick wasn't a clever prompt. It was a detailed spec. Video: youtu.be/PRYtmYJcZHU Blog: readyxrm.blog/2026/10/24/usi… #PowerPlatform #Copilot

You can now deploy apps on the Copilot Managed Runtime from Lovable, too. As a longtime Lovable user who works in a highly controlled IT environment, this makes it much easier to safely connect to M365 services and share just like a document. It's been great to partner with the @Lovable crew on this one as we build out the Managed Runtime. More on the Lovable blog here: lovable.dev/blog/microsoft-p… And if you missed the Managed Runtime details, check out: microsoft.com/en-us/copilot/…

5 forgotten features of #Dataverse! Over the years, Dataverse has features added, enhanced, deprecated or forgotten. What "forgotten" features do you use? Are they still useful? What did I miss? 📺youtu.be/8HqR14WwiD4 📝readyxrm.blog/2025/08/28/fiv… #PowerPlatform #Dynamics365

Interesting thanks @RajYRaman
Playwright MCP now works with Power Apps. Previously Snapshot was just a bunch of iframes, and now I can see the elements. Magical!! Can't wait to explore this further after I finish work with my extension.

If you understand Power Platform governance and have adopted these types of frameworks, you will be more successful in Adopting AI governance! I've been reading up more and more on AI compliance and all sorts of interesting subjects around how orgs can adopt a golden standard. The reason I have been doing research is because I remember at the very beginning of people using Power Platform, one of the key requirements was to have a "Thing to track what people have made". In the time i've been working in Power Platform, this has not changed! ITs still a priority requirement. Given AI is FAR more wide than Power Platform and there are so so many different forms if AI, I have started to see the need for AIMS (AI Management Systems). In looking at the EU AI Act as well as the ISO 42001, from an auditability perspective, this is starting to come out as something that is REALLY key. Remembering that a "SYSTEM" is not just the technology, but the people and processes as well. The platform (Technology) simply supports the processes and people. I ALSO found this super interesting article that actually points out interrelations between the EU AI Act and ISO! Read here: msecb.com/iso-iec-42001-and-… Summary, I think that the EU AI Act and the ISO 42001 are really strong frameworks to beginning your journey to doing things with AI responsibly. You don't need to be n the UK to use these btw!
