Before developing, it’s useful to create a mockup for an application. PowerPoint can help! As prerequisites, you need to have PowerPoint and Visual Studio 2013 or later installed.

Tips for PowerApps-camera access

Tips for PowerApps-camera access

So, when I got this message in the camera control … I got mad, because I didn’t find out where to allow that access on my computer (especially because it worked before). I checked device settings, the camera control settings, PowerApps settings, googled… ...

Delegate365 changelog version 6-Menu restructuring

With Delegate365 version 6 there comes a slightly restructured menu. See the differences here. The existing left menu got a little bit disordered, so we reorganized it with groups to make it easier for admins to find related features.

When selecting a partner and opening the Office 365 admin center, not the partner tenant was opened but instead my own tenant. I didn’t figure out why this no longer was working. Anyway, I tried to use PowerShell instead… The red marked links opened the Microsoft Partner Portal, but not on behalf of the partner tenant, but only showing my own Office 365 tenant… ...
