  Apr 4, 202622 minS4

  <p >Power Pages is having a surprisingly good run.

  Hide your dirty laundry on the server-side

  Jan 22, 202628 minS4

  <p >15 years too late but it's finally here: server-side logic in Power Pages.</p> <p >What does it change in practice?</p> Unlike Azure Functions, it's just another Power Pages asset that can be added to Power Platform ALM. Perfect for anything that is logic-lite/secret-heavy. Think payments and integrations that need secrets. Server-side logic avoids awkward workarounds using plugins, Power Automate, etc. just to keep keys safe. Re-use your Javascript skills though it's not lift-n-shift from the client-side exercise. Just couple new objects to learn: HTTP client for external calls and a Dataverse object for CRUD operations. There are...

  End Of The World As We Know It: Security Leaks In Power Pages

  Aug 17, 202534 minS3

  <p >In this episode, we take a close look at the history of security issues in Power Pages. We start with the early days — when simple misconfigurations like unchecked table permissions and enabled OData feeds led to major data exposures. These weren't bugs, but they showed how easy it was to set things up the wrong way. We talk about how Microsoft responded and what lessons we've learned about secure defaults and clear documentation.</p> <p >We then move on to more serious vulnerabilities introduced by newer features like the Web API. We explain how some of these flaws allowed ac...

  Hidden In Plain Site: Underused Features in Power Pages

  Jul 17, 202550 minS3

  <p >Continuing from the wishlist, in this episode we focus on underused features in Power Pages - capabilities that are built into the platform but often overlooked during development.</p> <p >We discuss features such as redirects, shortcuts, site markers, and web link sets, highlighting where they fit and why they're still relevant, especially for structured navigation and content management. We also cover content snippets, explaining how they support multilingual content, reduce duplication, and allow non-developers to manage content without modifying code.</p> <p >Additional topics:</p> <p >Leveraging form and list metadata instead of custom JavaScript</p> <p >Choosing...
