It would be great to get the description in the DataSourceInfo function for any field/column for a specific Table. Right now, the DataSourceInfo gets you a lot of other metadata like the displayname, max length, max value, min. value, etc.. Adding the description to this list would make the list complete. The description can then be used for HintText or for tooltips to improve accessibility .

I set some columns to be required columns on Dataverse. 'Required' worked well, except for lookup columns. There are dropdown box for column requirement options even when I make new lookup columns. However, when I tried to create a new record on Power Apps using Patch or Collect function, record without required data in lookup columns was able to accepted without any error. Thus I need to see if there are any blank for these columns on Power Apps so far. I appreciate if Dataverse itself would reject a new record with blank in required lookup columns.

The decimal field type only lets you use values between -100 million and 100 million. This is way too small for the data we want to import - any financial reporting solution will find this limit difficult to work work. Please increase the size of this column type to be in the 10s or even 100 billions range.

Change the dropbox field to a non-primary column in EditForm. Example: The main table is A, and the referencing table is B. Let the primary column of B be b and the column to be looked up be w. A(many) : B(1) and w is set as the lookup column. The property settings for the app dropbox are as follows. Edit field is changed from default column b to column w. I want this setting to work without displaying an error message.

Can we please have a new Quick Edit Form that allows to modify existing records on a subgrid without having to navigate away from the main form, similar to the existing Quick Create Form? Editable Grids are not always ideal, especially when having cascading lookup fields. This idea came from one my previous posts https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Microsoft-Dataverse/Is-there-an-equivalent-to-quot-Quick-Create-Form-quot-for/m-p/799053#M9090 Thank you, Erick

It would be great if you could work with decimal fields on computations and round(), floor() or ceil() the result to use on a Whole Number field or with other functions.

Would be very handy to have the ability to trigger Dataverse Dataflow from Power Automate. Sometimes the Dataflow refresh/scheduled run do not satisfy the requirements and the trigger needs to run based on some business logic such as when a file is uploaded or when an event occurs in the system.

We are currently unable to use the Attachment control in Canvas Apps to upload a file larger than 16 MB to a Dataverse file column. Documentation here states the Dataverse Web API only supports a maximum request payload of 16 MB, and file data that exceeds that maximum must be sent in chunks 4 MB or smaller. It would be great if the Attachment control could be enhanced to natively support Dataverse file columns by automatically do this chunking behind the scenes. Additionally, a nice to have added bonus would be to support the same maximum 128 MB file size of the File type in Dataverse.

When the year is included in an autonumber, include a setting to reset the autonumber seed value at the begining of every new year. example: 2020-01000, 2020-01001, 2020-01002, ... 2021-01000, 2021-01001, ...

When executing a query with the SDK, any lookup values always include the associated record name and formatted values are always included in the results. For many applications this is unnecessary and only the raw values are needed. Performance of these applications could be improved by introducing an optional parameter for the RetrieveMultiple message to eliminate this extra data. This would remove the need to include a join to each lookup table, giving simpler and faster SQL queries as well as less data to be transferred back to the client.

To Microsoft: you have an army of super developers, if Microsoft would just focus a small set of resources to enhance the user experience by adding functionalities like this one by providing out-of-the-box controls/components, PowerApps would rule. I hope you could consider to have the drag-and-drop functionality for Documents with SharePoint integration. It would enable model-driven apps to drag-and-drop files easily, and also while using the Dynamics 365 App for Outlook. This would make super easy for users to drag-and-drop files from the windows file explorer -or- an email to the model-driven app interface and store the files in the connected SharePoint in the back... See screenshots below for reference. From Windows File Explorer to a model-driven app; (related) Documents control with integration to SharePoint... From the Outlook inbox - email attachment to the model-driven app through Dynamics 365 App for Outlook. Thank you for your cosideration. Best, cepjc

It would be great to have a tool similar to Power BI PowerQuery datasets which could allow you to aggregate and transform data from different Dataverse tables and save that transformed data into a new table. This would allow one to combine data from different input sources into a table that could give you more functionality and better analytics.

I'm getting a bunch of redirects, than and authentication failure from Dynamics 365. 😞 They do seem to be working on a paid CDS/Dataverse paid environment. Bug or limitation?

As a Power Apps Administrator, I would like to suggest the capability to be notified of different thresholds of CDS Database Capacity usage via email.

Hi My idea is to combine Power Automate Approvals with Power Apps. I have created a requisition template in Power Apps and is using Power Automate in order to get approvals from relevant stakeholders. As of today it is possible to approve/reject from the Power Automate App and from the Mail. But it would be nice if we could have the possibility to approve from within the Power App. Thanks Br. Tore

As shown here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/business-applications-release-notes/april18/microsoft-flow/add-action-business-process-flow we can add on-demand workflows to business process flow (BPF) steps. The default name for the button cannot be changed from the BPF builder. My suggestion is to allow configuring the button name, rather than just allowing a field label above and naming all buttons "Execute".

The only two types of relationships that are supported in Dataverse Common Data Service (CDS) are One-to-many (1-N) / Many-to-one (N-1) and many-to-many (N-N). Would be great to finally have the ability to have a true one-to-one (1-1) relationship between two entities. Currently the workaround is to have two relationships, 1-N and N-1 between the two entities and have custom logic (such as classic workflows) to populate the the lookups on each entity.

In make.powerapps.com the model driven Forms list under a Table shows all forms, even Inactive forms with no indication that the form is active or inactive (if you look at views there is a column indicating active/inactive but not for Forms). Users can edit an Inactive form, even the now deprecated classic ones without any warning that they are editing an inactive or classic form (you can see an example under the Account entity, where the Information form is listed without any status and you can edit it without any warnings even though it is inactive and now also deprecated).

Dataflows are an excellent way to get and transform data into Dataverse. I would like dataflows to get and transform data from Dataverse (and/or other sources) and export it to Excel/CSV. The resulting Excel/CSV document could then be dropped in Sharepoint, Azure Storage or sent by-email. This option could be selected at the column mapping stage, after the dataflow has been created. This can already be done using PowerAutomate in a subsequent step, but it is fair to say the process is not intuitive and relatively complex (reserved for intermediate and expert users). The ability to export data from dataflows, directly in the dataflow interface, would further democratize this awesome functionality. Most of the time, business users are more focused on getting data out of a database then getting the data into a database. For security reasons, it would be important that the ability to export data directly through dataflows be enable or disabled through the Admin portal, ideally for specific users (if not, just an on/off switch applying to the entire environment).
