I had an agent build six demo apps in Copilot Studio in one day, then wire one to live energy data through custom connectors. Here's what review taught me.
Power Platform sends CSP violation reports from code, model-driven, and canvas apps. Here's the small open source collector I built to triage them.
Compare Copilot Studio transcript replication through Fabric and Azure Functions, with practical guidance on retention, identity, parsing, and Power BI costs.
Estimate Copilot Studio agent costs from business tasks, measure cost per successful outcome, and refine production budgets with observed credit consumption.
What the Microsoft Communications Portal is, how it aggregates Power Platform, Microsoft 365, Azure, and Fabric update feeds into one dashboard, its defense-in-depth security model, deployment options with Azure Developer CLI or Docker, and how to contribute on GitHub.
A technical tour of every Power Platform and Copilot Studio API surface behind Portal 360° — BAP, api.powerplatform.com, RBAC, the inventory query endpoint, Dataverse, and the tenant-scoped usage host — with real, sanitized calls and screenshots.
Code apps let you build a React or Vue app in your own IDE and run it on Power Platform, with Entra ID sign-in, 1,400+ connectors, and DLP handled for you.
The Power Platform admin center still doesn't flag which Copilot Studio agents run on the GitHub Copilot harness. The isCLIAgent property does, and Microsoft has now published governance guidance built on it.
A tour of Portal 360°: multi-tenant admin, config drift, CVE tracking, and the BFF-secured Next.js architecture behind one Microsoft cloud console.
Why I finally started writing after years of putting it off, plus a tour of what I built with AI: Pulse 360°, Portal 360°, and the Microsoft Communications Portal.
