MODULE 3: Manage the Microsoft Power Platform
Environment (15–20%)

Overview

Effective management of the Microsoft Power Platform environment is essential for ensuring
security, governance, and smooth operation of apps and workflows. This module covers how
environments are structured, tools for administration, policies to protect data, and monitoring
capabilities.

Key Concepts

• Environment Types:
o Default environment: Automatically created for each tenant, used for personal
productivity.
o Sandbox environments: Used for development and testing without affecting
production.
o Production environments: Live environments supporting business operations.
• Power Platform Admin Center:

A centralized portal to manage environments, users, data policies, and resources.

• Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Policies:

Rules that restrict how data can move between connectors to protect sensitive
information.

• Role-Based Access Control (RBAC):

Using Azure Active Directory groups and roles to control who can create, edit, or
delete resources.

• Monitoring and Analytics:

Tracking app usage, flow runs, error logs, and compliance reports to ensure
operational health.

• Center of Excellence (CoE) Starter Kit:

A toolkit designed to help organizations govern, nurture, and scale Power Platform
adoption effectively.
Detailed Explanation

Managing environments strategically helps organizations control app lifecycle and data flow.
For example, sandbox environments allow developers to test apps safely before publishing
them to production.

Admins use the Power Platform Admin Center to assign user roles, monitor usage, and
configure policies that prevent unauthorized data sharing across business units.

Data-first apps built on Dataverse with a component-focused approach using forms,

views, and dashboards. Great for complex business processes.

• Power Pages (formerly Portals):

Build external-facing websites integrated with Dataverse for customer or partner

access.

• Connectors:

Power Apps supports 500+ connectors, including SQL Server, SharePoint, Excel,
Dynamics 365, and many third-party services.

Automate (15–20%)

Overview

Power Automate is a cloud-based service that helps users create automated workflows
between apps and services to synchronize files, get notifications, collect data, and more. It
supports multiple flow types to suit different automation needs, enabling organizations to
increase productivity by reducing manual tasks.

Key Concepts

• Types of Flows:

arrives).
o Instant flows: Triggered manually by a user (e.g., button press).
o Scheduled flows: Run on a defined schedule (e.g., daily report).
o Business process flows: Guide users through defined business processes step-
by-step.
• Connectors:

Power Automate integrates with over 500 connectors across Microsoft 365, Dynamics
365, Azure, and third-party services.

• Templates:

Prebuilt workflow templates simplify common automation scenarios.

• AI Builder Integration:

Automate intelligent processes such as form processing, prediction, and object

detection.

• Error Handling and Monitoring:

Tools to track flow performance, failures, and logs.

Detailed Explanation
Power Automate empowers both business users and developers to automate workflows
without writing code. Automated flows listen for triggers and perform actions, such as
sending emails, copying files, or updating databases.

Instant flows provide quick automation triggered on demand. Scheduled flows run at set
intervals, automating routine reports or maintenance. Business process flows standardize
complex procedures, ensuring users follow the correct steps.

Connectors expand capabilities by linking services like SharePoint, SQL Server, Twitter, and

MODULE 7: AI Builder

Overview

AI Builder is a Microsoft Power Platform capability that enables users to add artificial
intelligence (AI) to their apps and workflows without needing data science expertise. It
provides prebuilt and customisable AI models that integrate seamlessly with Power Apps and
Power Automate to automate tasks, extract insights, and improve business processes.

Key Concepts

• No-Code AI:

Build AI models with a simple interface, no coding required.

• Prebuilt AI Models:

Models ready to use, such as form processing, object detection, sentiment analysis,
and text classification.

• Custom AI Models:

Train models tailored to specific business data and scenarios, such as prediction or
entity extraction.

• Integration with Power Platform:

Use AI models directly within Power Apps and Power Automate workflows.

• Use Cases:
o Automatically extract information from forms and documents.
o Analyse customer feedback with sentiment analysis.
o Detect objects in images for inventory management.
o Predict outcomes based on historical data.

Detailed Explanation
AI Builder abstracts the complexity of AI by providing a user-friendly interface where
business users can select or train AI models using their data. For example, form processing
models extract fields from invoices or receipts, reducing manual data entry.

The platform supports importing datasets and labelling data to train models, which can then
be published and integrated into apps or workflows.

Sentiment analysis helps companies understand customer emotions from text feedback.

Object detection models support scenarios like identifying products in images.

By combining AI Builder with Power Automate, organisations can automate intelligent

processes end-to-end.
