Session Description
-------------------
Showcase the different approaches to combine the Model-Driven Apps with the Embedded Canvas apps, under which the PowerApps makers and developers can power up their end users' experience.
With embedded canvas apps, makers can bring the power of canvas apps to their model-driven forms. Embedded canvas apps can create affluent visual areas on a form and display data from various sources right next to Microsoft Dataverse.
Canvas apps enable makers to easily design and create custom layouts using the low-code WYSIWYG canvas app designer. Canvas apps also enable makers to connect and display data from over 400 data sources that can be integrated with the Dataverse data.
My session will cover adding and integrating embedded canvas apps on a model-driven form:
1) By Using the modern unified interface experience.
2) By using the classic experience.
3) By using custom pages.
Note: Our Embedded Canvas apps will use multiple data sources that fully integrate with our Dataverse Data.
Building MDA custom pages that use JavaScript WebResource code that can be reused with too many use cases that you might need to implement. I will also cover how to embed Canvas apps into Dataverse Forms Controls and build complete integration processes between the MDA and Canvas Apps.
I will cover the following:
Create Custom Pages
Create Custom ribbon button actions
Create WebResources with JavaScript
Embed Canvas Apps into Dataverse forms
Data integration between the MDA and Canvas Apps/Custom Pages
