Leveraging Dataverse and Dynamics 365
The Microsoft Power Platform includes Dataverse, what was formerly called the Common Data Service (CDS). Dataverse stores business data securely in the cloud and allows you to manage the data used by business applications. Dataverse stores data in tables and includes base tables for common scenarios but also allows the creation of new, custom tables. Dynamics 365 applications such as Dynamics 365 Sales, Dynamics 365 Talent, and Dynamics 365 Customer Service store data natively in Dataverse and in addition, Power Apps can be used to build applications against this core data without the need for integration. Finally, Dynamics 365 Business Central and Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations also have native integrations with Dataverse.
This recipe demonstrates how to use Power BI with Dataverse and Dynamics 365.
