The Dynamics 365 Remote Assist model-driven app is built on the Microsoft Dataverse. The model-driven app is a companion to the Dynamics 365 Remote Assist apps for HoloLens, iOS, and Android, and enables new scenarios for managing data generated and used by Dynamics 365 Remote Assist.

More information: What are model-driven apps in Power Apps?

The Dataverse is the central location for customers to store their organization-specific data. The Dynamics 365 Remote Assist client apps on HoloLens or mobile can send and receive data to the Dataverse, which can then be accessed through the model-driven app in a browser. This also allows other applications, such as Dynamics 365 Field Service, to share the same organizational data so you can gain further insights. You can even use Microsoft Power Automate to create flows that use Microsoft Dataverse and make them available for third-party apps. The high-level architecture diagram below shows the various possible components for these scenarios.
