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/usiโ€ฆ #PowerPlatform #Copilot

Agentic development is more than coding. I had agents build the Power Platform App in a Day solution: spec, backlog, plan, then build. Treat them like junior devs. Clear instructions, ask what they'll do, review their work. readyxrm.blog/2026/10/19/i-gโ€ฆ youtu.be/MXGAmTKGXf4

It's peak conference season and the FOMO is real. This year I'm skipping #PPCC in Las Vegas to compete for Canada at the North American Bench Press Championships in Costa Rica. My first meet was a local expo in 2012. See you at Ignite, hopefully with a medal. ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

Power Pages is secure. Your configuration might not be. Three settings line up and an anonymous visitor can pull your contact table straight out of Dataverse. How to spot it, and how to close it: ๐Ÿ“บ youtu.be/nfNP_Z04RdY ๐Ÿ“ readyxrm.blog/is-your-power-โ€ฆ

"How do you become a Microsoft MVP?" My answer: don't try. It's not something you earn like a cert. It's the result of showing up, sharing, and learning with a community. New video + blog on how ๐Ÿ‘‡ ๐Ÿ“บ youtu.be/LO-MU8BE8ak ๐Ÿ“ readyxrm.blog/2026/07/23/becโ€ฆ #MVPBuzz

Stop clicking, start prompting! ๐Ÿ–ฑ๏ธ๐Ÿค– You don't need to be a pro-dev to use VS Code. Set it up, add the extensions + skills, and 10x your Power Platform productivity. ๐Ÿ’ช Natural language is the best low-code. ๐Ÿ“– readyxrm.blog/2026/07/16/ditโ€ฆ โ–ถ๏ธ youtu.be/uGgeGO5TMA4

The #PowerPages caching improves performance, but real-time #Dataverse data is sometimes needed. The new Server Logic feature adds a skipcache parameter, an official way to bypass cache! Demo included. ๐Ÿ“บ Video: youtu.be/HdfsCWneOZw ๐Ÿ“ Blog: readyxrm.blog/2026/02/18/powโ€ฆ

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? ๐Ÿ“บyoutu.be/8HqR14WwiD4 ๐Ÿ“readyxrm.blog/2025/08/28/fivโ€ฆ #PowerPlatform #Dynamics365

Today, GPT-5 launches across our platforms, including Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot, GitHub Copilot, and Azure AI Foundry. It's the most capable model yet from our partners at OpenAI, bringing powerful new advances in reasoning, coding, and chat, all trained on Azure. Itโ€™s hard to believe itโ€™s only been two and a half years since @sama joined us in Redmond to show the world GPT-4 for the first time in Bing, and itโ€™s incredible to see how far weโ€™ve come since that moment. The pace of progress is only accelerating, and I canโ€™t wait to see what developers, enterprises, and consumers will do with this latest breakthrough. news.microsoft.com/source/feโ€ฆ

I just rebuilt #DynamicsCRM using #AI. Just kidding. (but I got your attention) What I did do is use some specific AI tools, such as #M365Copilot and the #PowerPlatform Plan designer and did build a basic minimal viable product #CRM system. youtu.be/L-83wCz1o-Y
