In order to be sure all data in the Covert Operation Center is up to date, we have to make sure caching is disabled. This is not possible by design in portals. But no worries. We have a dirty hack in our sleeves.
In order to reset the cache, we must navigate to /_services/about within the solution and click the “Tøm hurtibuffer” for the page.
Then we can monitor the network when clicking the button and save the request as a fetch request. Then we create a setTimout function with location.location() at the end.
And kapow! We have real-time data as long as the page is open within and browser.
In this crazy world we turtles need to stay together and help each other. In a hackaton there is not much time for making clean code and updating the documentation. We thought we would help out another team by submitting a pull request with some code-cleanup and added description.
nINjas happily approved the changes:

Let’s face it, we all love Microsft (and yes, sometime hates Microsoft, but any type of feeling is a lot better than no feelings!). We use Microsoft technology every day, and of course we use a lot of this in our solution. Let’s go for the one first. Using Power Automate to use data input in Dynamics 365 HR to create a user in Azure AD (I know, you’ve seen this before in a previous post, but it might be easier for you to see everything in one post than for us to reffer to other posts):
Then, why should you leave it up to every employee to create their email signature? Don’t worry, we’ll solve it for you. We’ve created a solution that attach a signature on all outgoing emails that have our company name in Azure AD, configured in the Exchange setup in office365 with data from Azure AD:
And then, the night before a new employee starts at our company, have a Power Automate that imports the user in to Dynamics so that the user can log in to the system. Also, connect the user to the correct worker so that it can access the Employee Self-Service to see and edit data regarding himself:
Today we tried to solve the head 2 head power apps challenge. We could not come with solution in time, but we managed to learn and prepare a lot about ML and power apps. While exploring the possibilities, we found the following option:
Lobe is a very easy to use product hat easily generates models based on images that you provide to the application. It has a direct integration with power apps. Here you can see a little bit of the UI:
Once the model was created and trained we exported it to power apps studio and got it available as a model under AI builder modules:
The next step as actually pretty simple, by just adding the model to a power app and running the Predict function, we got answer from the model to identify the type of pizza selected on an image picker.
Thanks to Ahmad Najjar for the tips and the challenge, new things learned 😊
As a CRMguy started developing and customizing CRM before it came under Power Platform I’m used to editing and customizing in the old editor. It’s said it won’t be supported for much longer…
At the same time, we are also using old-type workflows to set values on Account, instead of Cloud Flows.
Vi ville utnytte muligheten til å skryte av vår hemmelige Camp! Og selvfølgelig er også LilleRosaBærsj med oss når vi sniker oss unna til The headquartes!
Det er her alle de gode ideene kommer! Tarp på hotellrom kan anbefales! 😀
Vi håper også dere legger merke til både hodebåndet og maskotten vår! 😀
MAUI is still in Preview. That means it has a relatively small feature set and some of it doesn’t work as you’d expect. The fun part is figuring out how to make it work.
We wanted to implement an interactive map in a portion of our app. Seems like MAUI doesn’t support a solution for it yet. Whoops. Xamarin.Forms, the predecessor of MAUI, does support it but it hasn’t been ported to MAUI yet. So what do you do?
Here’s what we did:
Create a React project
Implement a React Component that shows Google Maps
Before we came to ACDC, who would have thought we ever would create a pizza creation app? But, here we go! Simplicity and speed was the important thing in order to be the first team to solve this task. The most timeconsuming task was to get hold of some images for the solution. And what better way of creating pizza sause than using the good and old bucket in MS Paint? Just close youre eyes, think about all the hours you spent playing around in Paint to create something beautiful you printed and gave to your sweetheart in the 5th grade! Oh, the memories!
Our customers in our pizza store seem to be bored, we have expanded our ordering-app in order to make their time fly and stuffed it with some fun and exciting features.
