Access Data from PowerApps Common Data Service (Dataverse) in PowerShell

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by dtietze 7

I'm trying to find a way to manipulate the data in a common data service table in PowerApps using PowerShell. I've looked into PowerShell support - Power Platform | Microsoft Docs, but that seems more related to creating apps, and that's not my goal. I've also looked into Use PowerShell cmdlets for XRM tooling to connect to Microsoft Dataverse (Dataverse) - Power Apps | ..., but I can't find any way to manipulate the data through that once I'm connected. Does anyone have advice?

    Hi @dtietze ,

     

    You have a couple of options:

    1. You can try the Microsoft.Xrm.Data.PowerShell open source module which has native cmdlets to interact with the data. 
      https://github.com/seanmcne/Microsoft.Xrm.Data.PowerShell 
    2. You can use the XrmTooling PowerShell module that you've downloaded. You would use the CrmServiceClient object to perform actions such as Create/read/update/delete or make Web API calls directly. This will be be more lower level programming than the former so it will give you more control, but will require a level of comfort with programming. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/data-platform/xrm-tooling/use-xrm-tooling-execute-actions
