Data Migration Tool is an app to migrate Dynamics CRM/Power Platform data between environments, using fetch XML queries.  What can you expect when you use this tool? It keeps Guid records. You can turn off the plugins to migrate data. You can apply a fetch filter per table. It's another way to deploy a portal. It executes an Upsert. It doesn't delete existing records. You can have a data backup. Other tools like Data Transporter on XRMToolbox also help you to copy data between environments respecting the record Guids and select the CRUD actions you want to apply. Both apps XRMTool and DMT run only on Windows. This post will explain How to use the Data Migration tool; during my years of experience, I have done this knowledge transfer for different reasons, so I considered it helpful to have these directions immortalized on the internet. I used this tool for different purposes such as a catalog table, some old Portal deployments (known as Power Pages today) To download the data m...

Power platform has some specific font-family to customize your website... but as developers, we always try to figure out how far we can get to apply customizations. In this post, I will show you how to use an external font family in Power Pages to match the site with your client's brand. First, you will need a font-family file; I'll use one from Google Fonts ( Sedgwick Ave Display - Google Fonts ). Create a Web file record to attach the “*.ttf” file on the notes. I suggest leaving the Home Page as Parent if you use this font across all the pages.     To apply this font for H1 labels, download the existing CSS called "portalbasictheme.css" and edit this, replacing it with the new font-family properties.       Update the portalbasictheme.css by attaching this to web file record.     Finally, sync the portal configuration to apply these changes; note that this action synchronizes the changes done on the portal management app.       Then cli...

Hi Folks, Have you had this kind of requirement? Where you have to get all the numbers that exist on a text. I recently created a child flow with Power Automate that does this in 11 seconds. First, you must create a variable to append all numbers in this string. The next step is to split your text by space, but first, you need to remove possible characters that can be next to the numbers f.e. "$" or "," split(replace(replace(triggerBody()['text'],',',''),'$',''),' ') Next, per each record, you will validate if it is an int or float number, and if yes, it will be appended to the variable. if(or(isFloat(item()),isInt(item())),concat(item(),'|'),'') Finally, remove the last string that concatenates each number "|" and return it as the flow result. substring(variables('numbers'),0,sub(length(variables('numbers')),1)) The expected result of the following input is: "4|4.59|2...
