How to Manipulate DataFlow through Power Automate Flow

Refresh DataFlow

If you have an existing DataFlow and you would like to refresh it before its refresh time, one of the ways to use Power Automate Flow to trigger the refresh.

After you have identified your trigger, all you have to do is use the Data Flow Action.

Group Type: Environment or Workspace

Group: is dependent on what you select on the Group Type, if you select Environemt like I did you will find your envoroment listed under Group.

Dataflow: Name of you DataFlow

DataFlow trigger

If you have a scenario to run automation after a specific DataFlow has completed, you can use DataFlow Trigger When a dataflow refresh has completed

The parameters are idential as the previous action.

Thank you for reading :)

Import Repo to the new Organization Remember here you have to generate a personal token to be able to import the Repo you have to be a member of the new organization as well This might take a few minutes depending on the size of your project, once its complete you will receive a confirmation email, or just refresh it after few minutes So far all looks good, you can clone the solution in your new Organizati...

XMLHttpRequest vs Xrm.WebApi

XMLHttpRequest vs Xrm.WebApi If you have written JavaScript code for Dynamics 365 you have seen the use of XMLHttpRequest or Xrm.WebApi to make server-side calls. The question is which one is the right one to use? So, let’s analyze the two types of calls. XMLHtttpRequest 1. Synchronous a.
