CRM AudioContacts Are Users Too - Now with Dataverse PrivilegesIt's one of the biggest Power Pages updates we've seen in years, and we're excited about what it means for the future. We talk about the newest Power Platform release and its biggest change — bringing Power Pages security together with Dataverse roles. We explain how web roles and contact records now work with system users, making Power Pages security act more like Dataverse. We share what we learned from testing the private preview, including how permissions, ownership, and auditing work now, and what the new "C2" users are. We also wonder what this means for pe...

CRM AudioEnd Of The World As We Know It: Security Leaks In Power PagesIn this episode, we take a close look at the history of security issues in Power Pages. We start with the early days — when simple misconfigurations like unchecked table permissions and enabled OData feeds led to major data exposures. These weren't bugs, but they showed how easy it was to set things up the wrong way. We talk about how Microsoft responded and what lessons we've learned about secure defaults and clear documentation. We then move on to more serious vulnerabilities introduced by newer features like the Web API. We explain how some of these flaws allowed ac...

CRM AudioHidden In Plain Site: Underused Features in Power PagesContinuing from the wishlist, in this episode we focus on underused features in Power Pages - capabilities that are built into the platform but often overlooked during development. We discuss features such as redirects, shortcuts, site markers, and web link sets, highlighting where they fit and why they're still relevant, especially for structured navigation and content management. We also cover content snippets, explaining how they support multilingual content, reduce duplication, and allow non-developers to manage content without modifying code. Additional topics: Leveraging form and list metadata instead of custom JavaScript Choosing...

In this episode of Refresh the Cache Nick and I discuss all the possible locations where script can be hidden in Power Pages while contemplating using Dropbox as a source control alternative.

CRM AudioConnection ReferencesMicrosoft released a public preview of Connection References, which store Power Automate (and some Power App) connections in solutions, and prompt for connection when the solution is moved to another environment. This is a big deal because currently connections are not moved with solutions, which means that Power Automate flows are not connected after the solution is moved, and editing flows in Production environments are tedious and cause problems with ALM processes. This change is also significant because it brings the value of solutions and ALM to non-CDS connected flows. Since Sharepoint, SQL, and custom...
