Using DataSourceInfo and RecordInfo function for checking permissions for a Dataverse table or record in Canvas App


DataSourceInfo function can be used to check the Table / Entity level permission.

We can check for Create, Read, Edit, and Delete Permission and can disable, hide and show the corresponding create, edit and delete buttons for the users.

  • DataSourceInfo.CreatePermission
  • DataSourceInfo. DeletePermission
  • DataSourceInfo. EditPermission
  • DataSourceInfo. ReadPermission

DataSourceInfo function can also be used to obtain information about a particular column of the data source like Display Name, Max Length, Max Value, Min Length, Required.

https://www.inogic.com/blog/2020/11/how-to-use-datasourceinfo-in-canvas-app/

  • DataSourceInfo.DisplayName
  • DataSourceInfo.MaxLength
  • DataSourceInfo.MaxValue
  • DataSourceInfo.MinValue
  • DataSourceInfo.Required

     

Similarly, the RecordInfo function can be used to get the information about the record of a Dataverse data source.

We can check for the Read, Edit, and Delete Permission.

  • RecordInfo. ReadPermission
  • RecordInfo. EditPermission
  • RecordInfo.DeletePermission

Hide Show control based on Security Role in Canvas App

Here for our sample Canvas App we have a button and a Gallery  having Data source as Cases

1 

Visible    

Button

If(DataSourceInfo(Cases,DataSourceInfo.ReadPermission), true, false)

2 

Visible   

Edit

If(RecordInfo(Gallery1.Selected, RecordInfo.EditPermission),true, false)

3 

Visible    

Delete

If(RecordInfo(Gallery1.Selected, RecordInfo.DeletePermission),true, false)

Now to test it, we have assigned the below custom security role/rights to another user – Test User 1 (along with Basic User security role)

i.e. Read, Write and Delete permission at the User Level on Case.

We have also shared the Average order shipment time record with Test User 1 assigning him the Write Permission.

Now when Test User 1 will open the Canvas App, the first button will be visible as he has the Read permission on the Case table.

In the gallery only the one record shared will be visible along with the Edit button on the same.

Let us just share one more case record with only Read permission to Test User 1.

We can see the record displayed for Test User 1.

It shows the Edit button for the new record, although we shared the record with the Read permission.

We have the following formula for the Edit button’s OnSelect

Patch(Cases, LookUp(Cases,’Case Number’ = lblCaseNumber.Text), {‘Case Title’:”Sample Title”})

So clicking on Edit for the new record shared ‘Complete overhaul required‘ gives the below Permission error

Now pressing the same edit button for the ‘Average order shipment time’ record will update the record (set title as Sample Title) as it was shared with Write permission with Test User 1.

Can’t delete billing profile. This is the only billing profile in the billing account- Azure (Trial)


Recently our Azure Subscription using free credit had expired and we wanted to remove the card details associated with the billing.

If we try to Detach it (and if the card is being used as the default payment), it will give us the below message

Cost Management >> Payment Methods > > Detach

“There are active or disabled Azure subscriptions on this billing profile. To detach this payment method, cancel and then delete all such subscriptions.​”

And if we trying to delete the billing profile

Cost Management >> Billing profiles


We would get the below message


So first we need to delete the subscription here.

Now again we can only delete the free trial subscription after 3 days of canceling it. So we would have to try deleting the subscription after 3 days.


Trying after 3 days,


will give us the option to delete the subscription


But as we have the resources associated we will have to delete the resources first.


Navigate to All resources and delete the resources first.



After deleting the resources, deleting the subscription will be successful

Let us now try to detach the card again.

This time the Azure Subscription existing message was gone as we had deleted it, however, we were still not able to detach and it was asking to wait until the end of the billing period.


Instead of waiting till the end of the billing period – next we tried the below option

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cost-management-billing/manage/cancel-azure-subscription#how-do-i-delete-my-azure-account


i.e. Deleting the Azure AD Account. (through another admin user’s account)



After successful delete, we can see all the options disabled.


So basically the fastest way to remove your personal information from the Azure Free Trial is to cancel the subscription, delete it and then DELETE the account/user.

Hope it helps..

While trying to send an email using Send an email with options action in Power Automate to my email id from a trial account, got the access denied error message.

Check out the wonderful post on sending Approval Emails to external users 

https://debajmecrm.com/approvals-with-external-users-in-power-automate-without-consuming-power-automate-flow-license/

The error message –

The cause of this issue was because we were using the trial tenant.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/mail-flow-best-practices/non-delivery-reports-in-exchange-online/fix-error-code-5-7-700-through-5-7-750#57708-access-denied-traffic-not-accepted-from-this-ip

Seems like the resolution is to contact support for an exception till we purchase the license.
