Integrate Dataverse with services and external data

  • Learning Path
  • 3 Modules

At a glance

Connect Microsoft Dataverse with external systems through reliable data exchanges. You combine event-driven notifications, record synchronization, and secure custom connectors to keep data aligned and make external services available to Microsoft Power Platform apps and flows.

Prerequisites

  • Ability to read C# plug-in code.
  • Ability to query Microsoft Dataverse through the Web API or an SDK, read an OpenAPI (Swagger) definition, and call a REST API.

Modules in this learning path

Publish Microsoft Dataverse events to external services

Get Dataverse events to the external services that need them by publishing from plug-in code or through configuration, registering the right destination endpoint, and recommending the listening approach that fits a given integration.

Synchronize external data reliably with Microsoft Dataverse

Synchronize Microsoft Dataverse data with external systems reliably and efficiently, using change tracking to detect what changed, alternate keys to identify records without a GUID, and the UpsertRequest message to create or update records in a single call.

Connect external APIs with Power Platform custom connectors

Create custom connectors that let Power Platform reach external REST APIs beyond the built-in connectors available in Power Apps, Power Automate, and Copilot Studio. Import an existing API definition, secure the connection with the right authentication method, and shape how data flows through the connector using policies, OpenAPI extensions, or custom code.
