Power Automate: Renew App Registration Client Secret and Update Dataverse Environment Variable Value

Last week, we learned how to create an email notification to remind us if App Registration in Azure expires. Today, we will learn how to apply automation to generate a New Secret and update the Dataverse Environment Variable. In the flowchart, here are the steps that we will do:

Today’s demonstration

Power Automate Custom Connector – Implement Retry Function, Azure Application Insights

Another journey on how to create a Power Automate Custom Connector with .NET API 8. Last week, we created a .NET API Project that implements the API Key for the Authorization process. Today, we will add more features including adding monitoring logs using Azure Application Insight and how to create an action where we can implement the retry function.

Dataverse: Get Azure Key Vault Secret from Plugin

I have an interesting question about how to get the Azure Key Vault Secret from the plugin. The official documentation about the RetrieveEnvironmentVariableSecretValue action states that it can only be triggered from Power Automate Flow. The problem with this step is that it needs an extra license and is also quite slow. Today we will learn how to implement it (and PSST, we also need to go back to the old days – to learn how to merge assemblies as we have dependencies we Microsoft Azure-related NuGet Packages).
