Synchronise SharePoint folder name with row name in Dataverse or Dynamics 365
Updating the name of a record in Dataverse does not update the name of the linked SharePoint folder or Document Location.
Dataverse is confused, the user is confused, and I am severely triggered by this data disarray. With a little bit of Power Automate magic we can automatically synchronise any record name changes with the SharePoint folder and Document Location, because that’s what it SHOULD do!
Upload Documents from Model-driven apps or Dynamics 365 to SharePoint - with metadata!
The Dataverse model-driven\Dynamics 365 app to SharePoint ‘integration’ is not the best. Chucking documents into folders, which are stored in folders, within more folders is not ok.
How to use Custom Pages, Power Automate, SharePoint, Power Apps and Dynamics 365 to help make it better. This post will show you how to:
1) Add information or metadata about the document except the record it relates to (by proxy of its location) during the upload
2) Show users when documents were uploaded without delving into each SharePoint folder
3) Significantly improve the document management user experience in model-driven apps
