Search has come a long way in Dynamics these last years. Recently the Relevance search was greatly improved in UI making it such a great place to search for information in Dynamics.
This is a function you have to activate in Dynamics for it to work properly. Once you do, you will be warned about data leaving the dynamics org. The reason for the warning is that data will now be indexed via different azure services outside of Dynamics sphere.
This search uses the standard quick find fields.
The relevance search activates a search box on top of dynamics.
In this search you can use lots of parameters to refine search:
You can also click the Show more to see several entities
From here you can refine the results further to see entities/records across the system. All in all a great experience for Dynamics.
Both teams are working with Lego Boost. A system from Lego where you can send commands over Bluetooth. Lego normally provides a controller that you can use, but we wanted to use a Rasberry PI. In order to do this we had to install Ras PI Light, before we then installed Python for commands. Since both teams were trying to figure out how to best talk to Lego via RasPI/Python we shared our findings so long to see what worked best. Point Taken got a few new tricks to check out for continuous connection for the bluetooth module. Changes will be implemented to our Train Conductor Portal for remote controlling train:)
We also have used a few PCF components within dynamics to make it look prettier. PCF components downloaded from Github found on pcf.gallery . This specific component renders images in the notification field to the form.
Lastly we have a GitHub solution connecting our Rasbery PI to our Lego Train. A solution coded by a Lego enthusiast and reused in our hackathon.
It is easy to forget security when you look at all of the cool features you want to implement.. Either way, the most important thing to do is enable many of the amazing security features in Azure Active Directory.
First you need to do is have a look at the AAD Premium P2 license.
Then we can login til https://portals.azure.com to enable the features.
First off is Conditional Access
Here we can activate MFA for everyone, and also setup exclusions for certain users that would require to not be on MFA. We can also add security to the different apps in the organization.
In the Identity Protection we can activate “User risk Policy” and “Sign-in risk policy”. These features will use intelligence to see abnormalities in your login patterns. Important security measures for users that might have their passwords compromitted.
Welcome to the beautiful Lego CITY❤ In Lego CITY we strive to keep the citizens safe and all communication digital.

Lego City is much like other urban cities with infrastructure to make the wheels go around.
Trains: Connecting all citizens
Lego Factory: Producing new and much needed spare parts
Houses: The beautiful homes of all citizens
They all live happy and carefree lives, but their safety is always a concern for the major of the city! Behind all the idyllic LEGO love lurks a danger that can erupt at any time!
Mountain of DOOM 🗻🌋🌄
Over the years the geologist have noticed an increased core temperature in the Mountain of DOOM. This has been an indication that it might erupt in the near future!! (earth time).
The Increadibles
The city will do anything to keep the citizens safe, and therefor the Mayor has created a crisis task force with critical roles in the city. As a collective force they will do their best to protect and prevent any lives from being lost in the case of an outbreak!
Geologist: Predict possible disaster
Major: Organize a crisis team
Train Conductor: Divert the train from the LAVA
Lego Mobile Phone Company: Notify all citizens via roles
Post disaster recovery
If or when a disaster should happen, the city has made it clear that they will help the citizens best as possible to restore whatever has been broken. To aid the citizens in a smooth and helpful way, they have provided a Citizen Self Service portal for incident reporting.
The city has also teamed up with a repair crew that will gladly fix all of the problems that occur. The City provides the technicians with a program for easy booking and part selection.
Once the Technicians are done, they wave goodbye, and the citizens of Lego City can return to their houses 🙌
