Laura Graham-Brown - Translytical Flows vs Embedding a Power App in your report

You create a brilliant report, it matches all the requirements and then someone asks for write back. They want to add adjustments, commentary or other random ideas. Although we would love to say no, we end up building solutions to provide write back and triggering events. Previously the obvious options have been an embedded Power App or a Power Automate button. Then Microsoft made up new words and released Translytical Flows that use User Defined Functions to open up the possibilities.

In this session we will demo building this new feature from scratch along side a demo of a simple Power App doing the same write back. Then we will have the fun of comparing the functionality, useability and maybe even the licencing. Who will win?

Plenty of demos, audience participation and time for questions.

Close by 8:30 with a chance to continue conversations in the Sheffield Tap by the train station.
