The WordPress Helsinki meetup group aims to bring people together of all skill levels, from beginners to WordPress professionals. WordPress Helsinki is purely organised by community volunteers, and operates under the WordPress code of conduct. This month, we welcome Daniel Spycher to speak about WordPress automation with [n8n](https://n8n.io/). In this talk, you will learn what n8n is and what you can use it for. We will also look at common risks and pitfalls. This is not just theory. You will see real examples that help you build your first workflows. We start with simple tasks such data manipulation and creating posts through the WordPress REST API to more advanced logic and automation. AI also plays an important role and can be integrated into your workflows. While n8n can be used for many purposes, this talk focuses mainly on practical use cases for WordPress. Daniel has been a WordPress developer and web designer for over 10 years. He enjoys building efficient systems and automating repetitive tasks. He is especially interested in tools that save time and reduce manual work. See you there! **Agenda** 17:15 – Doors open 17:30 – Opening words 17:40 – Presentation: WordPress Automation with n8n 19:00 – Drinks & networking 19:30 – After meetup drinks at a nearby bar This session will be in English.

You have to check this [sign-up page](https://7538e9.myshopify.com/products/competitive-game) to see if there is still a slot available there. * The background of using an external sign-up and payment system is because Meetup.com introduced a service fee to increase 21% of the fee in May 2023, and we want to reduce this cost. 【FEE and REFUND POLICY】 * Fee includes courts and the work I do to continue this group.

Please remember, the court booked for you is there and it costs money. The court doesn't simply become "free of charge", just because you didn't show up. 【COMMUNICATION】 * Communication: our whatsapp group [https://chat.whatsapp.com/JJQbJlisbcj5YDnlcSu347](https://chat.whatsapp.com/JJQbJlisbcj5YDnlcSu347) * There are too many spams, so I only accept +358 number to join whatsapp group.

This is a relaxed, friendly gardening club where we grow things together and take care of a shared space. We’ll start indoors, planning the garden as a group and sowing seeds, then move outdoors as soon as the ground is warm enough. This is a closed group of 15 volunteers who commit to meeting once a week to garden together, decide what to harvest, and what needs cleaning up or changing. Gardening is a lovely way of being together without pressure. We can chat if we feel like it, or be quiet if that’s what the day calls for. It’s good for mental wellbeing, a chance to be side by side, connected through taking care of living things and watching them grow.

Tervetuloa **PowerUp! Live Meetup** tapahtumaan kuulemaan Power Platform -aiheisia esityksiä ja verkostoitumaan. Tapahtuman mahdollistaa [Fellowmind](https://www.fellowmind.com/fi-fi/) ja se järjestetään Helsingissä osoitteessa Takkatie 1, 00370 Helsinki. Rekisteröidy tapahtumaan ja muista kutsua kaverisi myös mukaan. Tapahtumassa on tarjolla mielenkiintoisia esityksiä ja keskustelua Power Platformiin liittyen. **Aikataulu (16:10 - 20:00)** 16:30 - 17:00 - Ovet auki 17:00 - 17:05 - PowerUp! intro 17:05 - 17:20 - Tervetulo-sanat **Fellowmindilta** 17.30 - 18.00 - **Sessio:** User defined functions: Yksi funktio, monta käyttöä, **Hilla Mäntyomena** 18.20 - 18.50 - **Sessio:** Mitä Microsoft Agent 365 tarkoittaa Power Platform -ylläpitäjälle?, **Mikko Koskinen,** Forward Forever 19.00 - 19.30 - **Sessio**: Power Platform + AI käytännössä: agentit Teamsissa ja täsmäytysautomaatio ostoon, **Miika Tekoniemi**, Fellowmind 19:30 - 20:00 - Verkostoitumista ja avointa keskustelua **User defined functions: Yksi funktio, monta käyttöä** Hilla Mäntyomena, Sulava Onko Power Apps -sovelluksesi täynnä toistuvaa logiikkaa eri kontrolleissa? User Defined Functions tarjoaa siistin ratkaisun. ——————————————————— **Mitä Microsoft Agent 365 tarkoittaa Power Platform -ylläpitäjälle?** Mikko Koskinen, Forward Forever Microsoft tuo agenttien hallintaan uuden kontrollitason: Agent 365, Entra Agent ID ja Azure AI Foundryn control plane muuttavat sitä, miten AI-agentteja tunnistetaan, hallitaan ja suojataan koko tenantin laajuisesti. Power Platform -ylläpitäjät ovat tottuneet hallitsemaan Copilot Studio -agentteja ympäristöstrategian, DLP-käytäntöjen ja roolien avulla. Uudet agenttikontrollit laajentavat näkökulmaa merkittävästi: agentit eivät ole enää vain Power Platformin sisäisiä kohteita, vaan organisaationlaajuisia identiteettejä ja toimijoita, jotka näkyvät Entra ID:ssä, Purview’ssa, Defenderissä ja Azure Foundryssa. Tässä sessiossa käydään läpi Microsoft Agent 365 -konseptin keskeiset ominaisuudet ja se, mitä ne tarkoittavat käytännössä erityisesti Power Platform -hallinnasta vastaaville henkilöille. Sessiossa puretaan konkreettisesti: * Miten Agent 365 toimii keskitettynä agenttirekisterinä ja näkyvyytenä koko organisaation agentteihin * Mitä Entra Agent ID tarkoittaa agenttien identiteetin, omistajuuden ja elinkaaren hallinnassa * Mitä Power Platform -hallinnassa tulee ymmärtää Azure AI Foundry Control Planesta ja hybridien low-code / pro-code -agenttien hallinnasta * Miten nykyisiä prosesseja (onboarding, hyväksyntä, valvonta, incident response, poistaminen) tulee päivittää agenttien skaalautuessa * Miten Purview ja Defender laajentavat data- ja tietoturvakontrolleja agenttien toimintaan Esityksen jälkeen ymmärrät paremmin, miksi perinteinen Power Platform -governance ei enää yksin riitä ja mitä konkreettisia muutoksia omaan hallintamalliin on syytä tehdä agenttien yleistyessä. \*\*\* Haluatko puhujaksi PowerUp! Meetup tapahtumaan? Kerro siitä meille: [PowerUp! Meetup (Finland): Call for Speakers @ Sessionize.com](https://sessionize.com/powerup-meetup-finland/) \*\*\* Welcome to this PowerUp! Live Meetup event, which this time powered by **Fellowmind**. Register for the event and remember to invite your friends too. There will be interesting sessions and discussions related to Power Platform. **Sessions are held in Finnish by default.**

**Google Analytics Alternatives** Is it finally time to make the switch away from Google Analytics? Two-and-a-half years ago Jason Packer asked this question at Columbus Web Analytics Wednesday. Since then: Google’s Universal Analytics has been sunset, we’ve changed our name to Columbus Data & Analytics Wednesday, and Jason has released two editions of his book “Google Analytics Alternatives”. Fresh off the release of the 2nd edition of his book, we thought it was time to re-open this conversation. While people love to complain about it, GA’s market share has remained relatively constant (at least in the United States). Why is that? You won’t find any complaints about GA4 in this talk, but rather an overview of what’s currently available in the market and how to frame your decision-making process. We’ll also be giving out some free copies of Jason’s book! So even if you’ve got a “GA4Lyfe” tattoo (no judgement), there’s free books to go with the free pizza and beer. Thanks to our 2026 sponsors: [Clarivoy](https://www.clarivoy.com), [What Box Consulting Group](https://www.whatboxconsultinggroup.com), [Conductrics](https://www.conductrics.com), and [Piwik PRO](https://piwik.pro) More info at [cbusdaw.com](https://cbusdaw.com)

Bring your Raspberry Pi, Arduino, microcontroller, or any other electronic project and join fellow electronics makers for a night of creativity and collaboration! This session is open forum to share your current projects—whether complete or in progress, it’s all interesting! Whether you’re deep into embedded systems, exploring new ideas, or just getting started, you’ll find a welcoming space to collaborate, share, and get inspired. **New to electronics or curious about tinkering?** You’re absolutely welcome. If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors. No pressure and no experience required—just an interest in learning and building. While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, we’ll be using public library facilities based on availability. This session will be at the Worthington Park Library in the Olentangy Meeting Room.

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia

This is a free, in person meeting. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
