View information about plug-in steps

Plug-ins contain code that enables server-side customization of Microsoft Dataverse data operations. Each plug-in is registered to execute at a specific point within that operation, which is called a step. You may need to find which plug-in steps are registered for specific events and you may need to temporarily disable plug-in steps to avoid issues caused by the plug-in.

This article describes how you can view information about plug-ins and disable and enable them using the Power Platform admin center or Power Apps. You can also perform these actions by installing and using the Plug-in Registration tool (PRT).

Plug-ins on the System User table can interfere with user sync operations. To make these more visible for system administrators, you can find information about these steps in the Power Platform admin center.

Follow these steps to view plug-in information such as the plug-in name, status, the user under whose identity the plug-in is executing, user license status, and more. You can use the information displayed in this experience to identify common issues related to plug-in execution.

Post operation and pre-operation plug-ins

When the system user table is updated with a SetBusiness unit, the post operation plug-in runs twice because these are two separate update operations in the event pipeline. However, the pre-operation plug-in is only run once.

To prevent the post operation from running twice, you can check for the businessunit field update and run your business process accordingly.
