I love working in and sharing everything about Microsoft.NET technology !

Fixed – BadGateway. The request failed. Error code: ‘502’. Error Message: ‘BadGateway’ in PowerAutomate – Start and wait for an approval


Recently we were getting the below error for one of our Flows.

BadGateway. The request failed. Error code: ‘502’. Error Message: ‘BadGateway’.

Everything seemed right.

Finally, found (thanks to the forum) that the fix was to update the Approvals Administrator security role.

Provide – Read Access to System Job inside Customization tab.

Before –

After –

This time our flow worked smoothly.

Hope it helps..

Lookup Behavior – Minimum character to trigger search and delay between trigger – Dynamics 365


Within Power Platform Admin Center – (https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com/)  through Environments >> [Name] >> Settings >> Behavior >> Lookup Behavior settings we can control the minimum number of characters entered before triggering the search in the and delay before the search is triggered for the lookups.

  • Minimum number of characters to trigger typeahead search – Default (2)
  • Delay between character inputs that will trigger a search – Default (250ms)

Here we have updated the value to 5 and 5000 respectively for our testing.

The result –

Lookup Behaviour

After 5 characters are entered, it waits for 5 seconds before searching (loading..)

Step by step – Configure Dynamics 365 Marketing in a Dataverse Environment


To configure Dynamics 365 Marketing in an existing Dataverse Environment –

  • Login to Power Platform Admin Center

  • Click on Dynamics 365 apps inside Resources

If Dynamics 365 Marketing is not listed there, log in to Microsoft Admin Center and start the trial.

We can see the product listed within Admin Center.

Back in Power Platform Admin Center we can see the Marketing application listed in the resources.

  • We can either install the Dynamics 365 Marketing Application with complete features or the Dynamics 365 Marketing Solution only, which only installs the solution.

Note – you don’t need a Global Admin role, the System Administrator role is enough to finish the setup.

  • It asks for the address to continue. In the case of multiple organizations, it would give the option of selecting the organization against which we want to configure the marketing app.

  • The installation starts, usually it takes somewhere around 2 hours or so.

  • After installation finishes, we can navigate to the app or uninstall the marketing app from the org.

  • Take me to the app, opens the app.

  • We can all see the Marketing app listed in the Apps section.

  • Similarly to Uninstall Dynamics 365 Marketing Application, we use the same option – navigate to Resources >> Dynamics 365 Apps – select Manage for the app.

  • It takes to the Marketing Admin Page, from where we can Uninstall the App

  • Read the details before continuing with the uninstall.

  • Apart from configuring Dynamics 365 Marketing over an existing organization, we can also set up a separate trial of the Marketing app.

https://dynamics.microsoft.com/en-gb/marketing/overview/#

  • Specify the work email id and launch the trial.

  • We can see the trial environment listed separately within Power Platform Admin Center

Hope it helps..

Comments in Power Platform [Preview] | Power Automate example


priyeshwagh777's avatarD365 Demystified

Here’s a new feature across Power Platform stack i.e. Power Apps / Power Virtual Agents and Power Automate

Comments

Let’s consider an example of a Flow / Power Automate for the Comments

  1. In a Cloud Flow, now you’ll see a Comments (preview) show up.
  2. When you click on it, Comments pane will open up letting you add Comments to the Flow.
  3. And just like in Word, you’ll be able to enter comments for the Flow. These comments are added pertaining to the selected Flow Step or the first Flow Step by default.
    Click on the send button to add the comment.
  4. Now, once a comment is added, a counter/badge of count of comments will appear on the Step the comment is tied to.
  5. As you proceed, multiple users can add their comments to different steps. (Ideally, since I added 2 comments to the second step, both should be highlighted. This…

Assign approvals to any user in the Tenant – Power Automate


We recently implemented Approvals, and we required that any user in the tenant should be able to provide approval.

For one of the users, we got the below error while testing the flow.

UserNotMemberOfCdsSecurityGroup

This was because we were using the Security Group to control access to Dataverse Environment.

So adding the user to the Security Group fixed the issue for us.

The user had the required CRM /Dataverse license.

More on that – 

https://nishantrana.me/2021/11/01/fixed-error-code-usernotmemberofcdssecuritygroup-error-message-the-user-xyz-cannot-be-created-in-microsoft-dataverse-because-the-account-is-not-a-member-of-group-abc/

Next, we ran into an another issue with one more user’s account and got the below error.

InvalidApprovalCreateRequestAssignedToNoValidUsers

The user was unlicensed so we thought that could be the issue. However, for other unlicensed users it was working fine, on running the flow, the user was getting added to CRM with Approvals User security role.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/get-started-approvals#assign-approvals-to-any-user-in-your-tenant

Next, we checked the AllowAdHocSubcriptions setting in Azure AD.

We tried both enabling and disabling this setting, but it still worked for other unlicensed users except the particular user.

We had added the user’s account to the Security Group also.

After spending some more time, when we tried to search for that user’s account in Outlook Address Book, it didn’t give us any result, then we realized that the account doesn’t exist anymore in the Tenant.
