PowerApps Screen with Add New and Edit Mode

I recently ran into a requirement to do a PoC on a PowerApps to be able to add and update records in a single screen in PowerApps. In order to implement the PoC I decided to test this out on the Contact Entity in a Dynamics 365 environment. I did not make any changes to the Contact Entity, but just used some of the Out of the Box fields. In order to implement this, I wanted to get a look and feel of a form that would look the same whether entering new information or editing existing information.

Credit Card Validator PCF Control

Recently, I published a blog post on creating a PowerApp that validates a Credit Card number, and displays the correct image next to the card based on the Card number. As my first PowerApps Component Framework application, I took the same logic of the PowerApp that I created, and decided to create a PCF control that will do the same. I have also created a training guide for this, so that you can follow this logic step by step, which you can download at the bottom of this post.

Logic Apps and Azure On-Premise Data Gateway – Part I (Installation)

I recently had a requirement to configure Logic Apps for use with the Azure On-Premise Data Gateway and connection to an Oracle On-Premise database. Since I did not have access to the Oracle database at that point, I decided to try this out with an On-Premise SQL Server database as the logic should have been similar. I downloaded the Azure On-Premise Data Gateway and installed it on the server, and the configured the Azure environment to connect to the server and post data back to Dynamics 365.
