Terms Flashcards
Power BI
With this data analytics service, users can discover and gather data from local and cloud sources and then visualize and share that data.
Power Apps
This development platform allows users to act on their data by creating web and mobile applications without writing code.
Power Automate
Users can use this automation service to trigger complex processes and workflows.
Power Virtual Agents
Users can create chatbots using a graphical interface with no coding.
Common Data Service
A cloud-based service that stores and secures data within a set of units called entities, for use in any of the Power Platform services and Dynamics 365
applications.
A cloud-based solution that easily structures a variety of data and business logic to support interconnected applications and processes in a secure and compliant manner.
A Software-as-a–Service Database service that’s fully integrated with the Power Platform.
- No code database/storage service for Dynamics & Power Platform.
- Designed to be your central data repository for business data.
- Managed, maintained and secured by Microsoft.
Common Data Model
A storage schema that defines standardized entities, attributes, and relationships that enable multiple apps to utilize the same data.
Standard entities that represent commonly-used concepts and activities across applications.
Data connectors
Proxy wrappers that enable the Power Platform tools to interact with other services. Over 200 public connectors are available, and users can also defi ne
custom connectors.
AI Builder
A turnkey solution that allows users to enhance their Power Platform apps and fl ows by integrating AI functions, such as object detection, text classifi cation, and form processing.
Connector
A connector is a proxy wrapper that the tools use to access an API provided by an application or service. Most applications and cloud services include such APIs, and the Power Platform connectors function as proxies—that is, intermediaries between the outside APIs and the internal Power Platform tools. The connector, as a proxy, authenticates to the outside application or service and then provides access to Power Apps and Power Automate (as well as to Azure Logic Apps).
Environment
A space to store, manage, and share apps, flows, and data.
Used to separate apps by roles, security requirements, and target audiences like dev, test, prod.
Solutions
A container to hold your changes.
A zip file that consists of a few XML files.
Can be deployed to other environments.
What can be added to a Solution?
Schema (entity, fields and relationships)
User Interface (forms, views, dashboards and more)
