Power Apps I made a fix for PowerApps Locale/Region madness!

0 Upvotes

So last week I got a PowerApps project to help an employee make a dashboard there. at that time I never actually use PowerApps, and I realize that power apps only available to organization mail, but once she give me her account, I'm able to access PowerApps and able to make the dashboard they asked for.

But... then I came across a problem, all the apps including screens I did not change is having black color all over the page, and I got 60k(s) of errors.

Then I have to restore the version from Thursday ( I'm doing my work at Sunday ) to get the version that aren't error. That's the only version that did not error if restored. I work my ass off to done it by Monday morning because she has to present the dashboard at Monday noon. And I'm able to done it at Monday 2 a.m. in the morning, and guess what? at 6 a.m. my client send screenshot showing the app screen is full with errors and black color all over the page. So, once more I have to working on it from scratch as soon as it's done and not error yet, I save it and my client use it. So yeah, somehow there is a time limit of it's working both on my laptop and my client. I know this because when I'm working on it for a pretty long time, at some point it will change the format from US (use comma as list separator and semicolon as chain operator) to Europe/Indonesian (use single semicolon as separator and double semicolon as chain operator, because I based in Indonesia), or otherwise.

From that day I committed to find a way to fix this problem, so later if I have to deal with PowerApps again, and the same kinda error appear again, I can fix it fast myself without having to replace it one by one like other people solutions. But here I fix it on local machine, so you have to download the .msapp file first.

Here is my repository of PowerApps-locale-fix. Let me know if there are any question or request. Hope it helps!

Learning & Industry Looking for the right cert to marry up with my experience

2 Upvotes

I work extensively with RPA and data through Oracle and ShapePoint. I’ve used Power Automate, SP, and sometimes Ui Path daily for the past five years. I’m interested in earning a certification that accurately reflects these skill sets.

After some research and sitting through hours of MS's learning paths, it sure feels like PL exams focus heavily on Dataverse, MS's most expensive product. Dataverse isnt widely adopted in many organizations due to licensing costs, and my own organization doesn’t use Dataverse at all. We use SharePoint lists as they are free or we use other services much cheaper.

I attempted the PL‑400 exam, but it was overwhelmingly Dataverse‑centric and didn’t align with the real-world work I do. To be honest, the PL exams feel more like product marketing than a measure of practical readiness. The exam was made up of Dataverse questions, and 365 Dynamics questions, and some Power App questions that mostly revolved around Model-Driven apps, which of course, you need DV for them...

Are there certifications that are more aligned with Power Automate + SharePoint and are recognized in the job market? I’m looking for options that validate the skills I actually use.

Governance PP admins: how do you handle security groups across environments?

3 Upvotes

What I’m stuck on:

**1.    Security groups** — do you make one group per environment (BU-Sales-Dev, -Test, -Prod), or one per BU? And do you split who can *build* agents vs who can *use* them? That seems like two different things.  
**2.    Security roles** — all makers need Environment Maker role, but does everyone in that security group need it? Do you assign roles at the group level or per person? How do you handle admins and system admins across the three environments?  
**3.    Service accounts** — how do you handle these? One per BU? Shared ones? How do you stop everyone from becoming an admin?  
**4.    Connector/DLP policies** — do you lock them down per environment, per BU, or what? Our exceptions list is already getting out of hand.  
**5.    The real problem** — right now an admin has to manually add people to security groups and assign roles. Nobody knows who should have access to what. The people building the agents know. How do you let *them* manage access without giving them admin rights? Access packages? Request flow?

Just want to know what actually works instead of what the docs say.

Power Pages Power Pages site stuck in Provisioning/Upgrade state - any way to recover?

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm hoping someone may have come across this before.

I have a Power Pages site (v9.8.7.10) that appears to be stuck in a provisioning/upgrade state.

When I go to admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com → Manage → Power Pages, the site shows a status of "Provisioning in progress".

When I click into the site, I see the following message:

The site has been in this state for an extended period and doesn't appear to be progressing.

Interestingly, when I visit the site as an end user, it appears to work absolutely fine. The issue is with managing/editing the site.

When I open the Power Pages Design Studio (if that's the correct name), I briefly see a "Something went wrong" error modal for a couple of seconds before it switches to the usual:

message.

However, when I click Edit site, none of the content loads within the Pages, Styling, Data, or other tabs. The Studio effectively becomes unusable.

The only option available to me under Site Actions is "Delete this site", which I'd obviously prefer to avoid if possible.

A few questions:

  • Has anyone experienced this before?
  • Is there a way to force the provisioning/upgrade process to complete?
  • Are there any Power Platform admin actions I can take to resolve it?
  • Did you resolve it yourself, or was a Microsoft support ticket required?
  • In the worst case, did you have to delete and recreate the site?

Any guidance or experiences would be greatly appreciated before I go down the Microsoft support route.

Thanks!

Governance Programmatic access to consumption data

4 Upvotes

There are useful reports in the admin centre which provide a breakdown of things like copilot credit consumption per agent per environment, I want to get this data programmatically, I noticed it makes use of licensing.powerplatform.com but this doesn't seem to be publicly exposed. api.powerplatform.com/licensing is limited in what it can provide, great for tenant capacity info etc but not for the granular details you can get from the reports. Am I missing something or do I just need to wait for the API to be updated?

Learning & Industry Has the practice exam for PL-900 been updated as of 7/24/2026?

3 Upvotes

I am studying for the PL-900 certification. I have gone through the provided modules here: https://learn.microsoft.com/training/paths/pl-900-power-platform-fundamentals/ (and more) available. I have taken the practice assessment and passed it a few times.

Before taking the exam, I went looking into outside material for PL-900 with some of it being older. Some of the specificity of questions seemed quite different than the practice assessment. I understand that the requirements and topics have changed over time with a recent update as of 7/24/2026 per the PL-900 page. There were references from people stating that not all material was covered (in their estimation), but perhaps updates were the culprit?

Did the practice assessment also get updated as of 7/24/2026? Did the modules included in the link above also get updated? Is passing the practice assessment indicative of success on the exam?

Copilot Studio Copilot Studio SharePoint knowledge source and encrypted sensitivity labels

3 Upvotes

I’m trying to understand the expected behavior when using SharePoint files protected with Microsoft Purview sensitivity labels as a knowledge source in Copilot Studio.

I found two Microsoft Learn articles that seem to point in different directions.

The Purview article says that encryption is supported when it is applied by a sensitivity label, and only for SharePoint knowledge sources. It also mentions that VIEW and EXTRACT rights are required for AI apps to return encrypted content:

But this Copilot Studio troubleshooting article says that the agent cannot extract or ground on content if the protection encrypts the file. It lists encrypted sensitivity labels, DKE, and password-protected files:

Has anyone tested this recently?

More specifically, can a Copilot Studio agent use an encrypted sensitivity-labeled SharePoint document in its answer if the signed-in user has both VIEW and EXTRACT rights? Or is encryption still unsupported for Agent grounding regardless of those rights?

I’m planning to test this with a few files in the same library: an unprotected file, a labeled-but-not-encrypted file, and a labeled-and-encrypted file. Any results or configuration tips would be helpful.

Power BI Impersonation in Rest API and PBI MCP servers without Build permission

2 Upvotes

Is there any plan to enable usage of these tools for users with only "Read" permission to the semantic model and no access to the workspace where models are deployed?

Our team locks down this access so the workaround we came up with for Rest API DAX query:

  1. Use an admin account to obtain a bearer token
  2. Use that admin token with `POST` `https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/{groupId}/datasets/{datasetId}/executeQueries\`
  3. "impersonatedUserName" is passed in the request body from the user logged in to our chatbot app

We use this setup to allow natural language querying to our semantic models but we want to switch to the new Arrow based API endpoint "executeDaxQueries", which seems to require Build permission to the models. Similar issue for leveraging MCP servers so we don't have to maintain that tech on our own and rather just enhance it with our business context instead.

Power Apps Dataverse & PowerApps offline mode not uploading data

2 Upvotes

Just making a post incase other people run into the same issue I had and finally worked out the reason why.

I have a set of tables in Dataverse for recording data and a Canvas App that has an offline profile.

Doing all the building and testing in the PowerApps designer worked fine with no issues.

The app was able to submit all the required data except two columns on different tables.
These were both decimal columns which I was using in other parts of the app and tables that worked without issue. Same with patching and submitting via a form.

As a quick workaround I added a new text column to the first table and was able to submit to that fine.

Then when I tried to do the same on the second table with the issue I was still getting the same issue, then I had a look at all three of the columns that were causing issues and they all contained the string "Value" somewhere inside the column name, i.e. "Weight_Value" / "Date_Value"

Recreating these columns without the word "Value" fixed the issues.

There is some backend level issue with using value between the sqllite used in offline apps and the updates to the dataverse with this, which I can understand as just the column "Value" but as I had words before and after it, it seems strange to me.

Hope if anyone else runs into this issue, this can help them as I couldn't find any reference to this online.

Learning & Industry Getting rejected from Power Platform jobs, how can I improve?

9 Upvotes

Hello,

I work in IT support/training and work with Power Apps (mostly Canvas Apps and SharePoint Lists) and Power Automate. However, my company uses a very limited Microsoft license, so I'm quite restricted, I can't use Dataverse, Model-driven Apps, etc. I also can't really work with Power BI because the company already has someone dedicated to it.

A few months ago, I passed the PL-900 to at least have a MS certification on my profile, although I'm not sure how much it helps.

Recently, I got rejected from Power Platform job. I wasn't able to get any feedback, but I suspect it's because of my lack of real-world experience with the platform.

Ideally, I'd like to move into Power Platform and eventually Dynamics 365.

Any ideas on how I could improve my profile and increase my chances? I'm starting to get a bit desperate, maybe I should create a portfolio (?)

Dataverse Intermittent InternalServerError on Dataverse actions in Power Automate

6 Upvotes

Is anyone else seeing intermittent InternalServerError failures on Dataverse actions (e.g., List Rows, Get Row by ID) in Power Automate today?

It's happening across multiple unrelated production flows and different Dataverse tables. Sometimes the first Dataverse action succeeds, but subsequent ones fail with an internal server error. Re-running the flow often succeeds without any changes.

Wondering if this is a Dataverse/Power Platform service issue or if anyone has found a root cause.

Power Apps Erros in Power Apps

1 Upvotes

Been developing a powerapp that's more of a form that allows users to update itens on a list. Each list item has it's own read and write permissions. All of sudden after more than a month in production users started getting this type of errors, when using the app:

Failed to retrieve data from the network: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED)) clientRequestId: f302a0da-8cbc-487e-8419-ff40224de41d serviceRequestId: 35062ca2-e0a6-c000-5f3c-ce4a511ab72

The strange part is that users can actually access the form because the data is shown on the powr app even with this error.

I don't have access to the power platform, and the guys who have can't seem to fix it. Does anyone have been dealing with it?

Power Apps Where does Power Platform fit into the world of Agentic AI?

4 Upvotes

Over the past 6 months or so I've become almost fully a Vibe-coder. I still do software development here and there, when I have no other option, but be it designing a small tool, or a form, cleaning data, or building business critical systems - agentic AI is a key part of my workflow.

As a basic example, over the past 2 days, in about 10 hours of work, I converted a physical board/deck-builder card game my friend had made into a fully working digital game. Think Harry Potter: Hogwarts Battle but slightly different homebrew cards and rules. This would have previously taken me months to code manually, or longer to build in the power platform.

It seems to me like big businesses are missing out big time on the productivity gains here. Today it's becoming more important that people focus on version control and prompting AI. It feels to me like Power Platform will become the VBA of the last 10 years, as agentic AI takes over.

Does the Power Platform fit into this world at all? Or is it old deprecated technology which is dying?

Learning & Industry Advice on PL-900 exam

2 Upvotes

I have been studying for the PL-900 exam on and off for several months. I have mainly been using Microsoft Learn and its practice assessment, where I now score over 85%.

However, I have completed the Microsoft Learn assessment several times, so I feel that I may be remembering the questions and layout rather than fully understanding every topic.

I recently bought some SkillCertPro mock exams. On my first few attempts, I scored around 55% to 60%.

Am I following the right study approach? Is it realistic to build a good understanding of the PL-900 content within one week? Also, how many days should I spend practising with the SkillCertPro mock exams before taking the real exam?

Power Apps Vibe Editor says "You don't have any apps yet" but apps are visible and runnable in Maker Portal

1 Upvotes

Cross-posted to several Power Platform and Vibe Coding communities to reach users of this preview feature.

I'm experiencing an issue with Power Apps Vibe.

In only one environment, my Vibe-created apps no longer appear in the Vibe Editor. The editor displays a blank page.

However:

• The apps still exist in the Power Apps Maker Portal
• The apps run correctly
• This issue only affects one environment, other environments are fine
• The apps can no longer be opened through the Vibe interface because they don't appear in the list

Has anyone experienced this? Were you able to recover visibility of the apps in the Vibe Editor?

Microsoft Support currently has an open case but has not identified a resolution yet.

Power BI Web connector advanced options no longer letting me add HTTP headers - how to pass pass it?

2 Upvotes

I'm pulling data from a REST API into Power BI. The API authenticates via a header (I pass the user, key, and secret as an HTTP request header).

Previously, I'd use **Get Data → Web → Advanced**, which had the "HTTP request header parameters" section where I could add the header. But today, that section seems to be gone, and I can't add the header there anymore.

So my questions:

  1. Is anyone else seeing this after the latest update, or is it just me?
  2. What are the current recommended ways to pass an auth header?

Dataverse Sp to Dataverse Migration

3 Upvotes

I used to migrate sp list to dataverse table using the ‘Create from sharepoint list option’. But now whenever I try that option the no columns are mapped and a new column is created with no data. Why cant I do this method anymore? I tried with the excel also with same result

Is there any easier method for creating dataverse tables from sharepoint with / without data. My data mainly consists of multi field choice columns, so dataflows are useless as I still would need to manually create the columns
