Sharing subset of dataverse for public access

Posted on by 43

I've been trying to get my head around dataverse and how it could be used in a project. I understand that dataverse can be used in power apps to hold the data e.g product catalog & product inventory within a company.

 

My query is how can I re-use some of that data for public facing read-only access where the data is kept up to date?

Keeping with the example above, how would I provide a product catalog on a public facing website that users could interact with and which is fed from the dataverse?

 

My initial thoughts are public embedded PowerBI dashboard with a subset of product catalog data that shows the current products as well as those that have been retired or new releases. The data(set) would be updated at regular intervals but I'd like to control the update process and also ensure the data model was optimised for PowerBI . 

 

What options do I have?

    This is a typical scenario where you can use Microsoft Power Pages. It's a cloud-hosted, low-code content management system that uses data from Dataverse. Please see the dedicated product page for Power Pages here.

    Another option is using custom integration with your website. Dataverse offers its own API for querying data. You can also use flows for synchronization of data between dataverse database and your own website.

    I had thought that might be a solution but are there other ways if I have an existing web platform I want to integrate with? Publish to web from Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn looks like it might be helpful. I would like to be very explicit about the dataverse data that would be available for public PowerBIs but I can't figure out how/where the data could be stored and want to avoid a file (csv,excel) based solution if I can

    Interesting idea! Maybe in your case, this solution will be sufficient. You can easily test it out if you already have the proper product data in the dataverse. I imagine you need something like a single pager with a list of the products and the current stock values. Thank you for the inspiration!
