2021-11-16T08:30:18-07:00By |

What is Power Fx, and what does it mean for your apps?

2021-11-27T10:27:47-07:00By |

Have you ever built an app in Microsoft Power Apps which whole departments at your business started to depend on? Oftentimes, a simple app becomes crucial to the work that teams do. Over time, colleagues begin requesting more features and capabilities.

2021-11-27T15:32:23-07:00By |

Earlier this year, researchers discovered that a Microsoft Power Apps security configuration issue had led to some 38 million records being exposed online. Personal information, including vaccination appointments, Social Security numbers, employee ID’s, email addresses and COVID-19 contact tracing, was effectively being published online via Power Apps portals. The issue arose because of the way that certain Power Apps portals were set up.
