In this session we will develop an end to end real-life Chicago style pizza ordering solution demonstrating how we can easily use capabilities within the Power Platform in conjunction with Microsoft Teams to create apps and solve your business automation challenges. In this session, we will learn how to use the built-in low code data platform for Microsoft Teams (Dataverse for Teams), to first create relational data storage & rich data types in Dataverse. Next, we will build a Power App and corresponding Power Automate flows to connect and act on the data source/tables we created. Lastly, we will use intelligent chatbots via Power Virtual Agents to empower teamwork & improve productivity within the solution.
