I've been looking at the standard tables built in to Dataverse on the premise that re-using existing professional code is better than writing my own newbie code. One of the tables, Tour (msdyn_tour) looks like it might be useful for providing help to new users of the model-driven app I'm creating. But I can find little to no documentation about it.
What is a Tour record for? Are there any examples of how it can be used?
And more generally:
Are their any good resources explaining what each of the standard Dataverse tables is for? A list of properties and methods is all well and good, but it doesn't get me far. For example, I almost used the Business Unit to model my organization structure before I understood that it was meant for security groups. Argh!
Hi @halifaxious,
As you mentioned, its likely related to providing Custom Help Pages as its bundled as part of that Contextual Help Solution. The Tour table is not documented in the Dataverse table reference however, which typically means its meant for internal use only and probably unsupported to customize and work with directly.
The table reference that I linked above can be pretty light on information though, as it typically just provides a one sentence description of each listed entity and then all of its columns and relationships.
