Our Use Case
Things to consider when building an app
Before you build an application, you should have some thought and break down what you want to do before building. This process is often called "Solution Architecting". While we will not be taking a lot of time doing this, I would like to introduce you to the basics of it.
In our session case we will look at:
- The FrontEnd built with Powerapps, you can learn more on How to build a canvas app
- The Middleware that allows us to run the background process of our Asset Manager solution. This can be configured by using Approval flows within Power Automate
- The Backend allows us to store all the data from our solution and to achieve this we will Set up tables in Microsoft Dataverse
The Middleware
The middleware will be Microsoft Power Automate which will allow us to configure the background processes that the admins will need to set up approval request for an example. Below is the image of Power Automate studio where we will be building the Middleware.
The Process Flow
When configuring a process that your Power Automate flow must follow, there is usually some set of steps business stakeholders often ask the automation builder to implement.
