Focus blog entry: Gain valueable Insights into your PowerApps using Application Insights

Power Platform provides a great way for citizen developers to develop Apps using low-code/no-code tools like PowerApps, PowerAutomate, and PowerBI. With this approach, the focus is more towards designing an App that provides business value to the business users than the architecture used for developing App. This provides a platform for citizen developers to build Apps at a lightning pace that does deliver value to the business however once the App is in the user’s hands, there is little you can do within Power Platform to gain some insights on how the App is performing or how it is being used by the users.

Read all about it in this month’s article: Gain valueable Insights into your PowerApps using Application Insights.

SQList feature of the month: AppId and AppSecret authentication for SharePoint Online Connection

When it comes to setting up connection to SharePoint Online, SQList provides several authentication methods one of which is SharePoint App-Only authentication.

There are several benefits of using SharePoint App-Only authentication which includes configuring connection to SharePoint Online without using user credentials, so you don’t have to worry about configuring user permissions for each user that uses SQList. Secondly, if your Azure AD is setup to use MFA, then this provides an alternative way for the service to authenticate without user interaction.

If you want to know more details about this feature, check out the video blog explaining how it works: Configure AxioWorks SQList for SharePoint App Only Authentication

Why use SQList to generate Power BI reports from SharePoint lists, rather than using the Power BI native connector to SharePoint?

he main reason is that in practical terms using the native connector only works for small amount of data and simple queries. When you start using it on lists with many thousands of items and/or want to run queries across many large lists, you soon hit limitations in terms of amount of data you can query and the time it takes to execute them.
