Opening Canvas App in Edit mode takes excessive time to open

Problem: Two Canvas apps in my enterprise portfolio took over 20 minutes to load in edit mode.

Initial Hypothesis: If I specify the version of a studio in the URL to an old version, the offending app loads in edit mode in under a minute.

&studio-version=v3.24052.30.298708436 onto the Canvas app edit URL

This tells me that something in my app is offending when the latest studio versions are used to edit the app.  While this was okay for a few weeks as a workaround, MS support eventually gave me two settings that fixed both my apps.

Resolution: 

• Turn off "Collection access in component scope"
• Turn on "New analysis engine"

Microsoft Learn company training plans is worth a look

Overview: Microsoft Learn has a nice feature to ensure users are trained on MS technologies. You can create collections of learning resources and add these to plans. Then, specify who should do the training and record the progress.

An example of a plan for new joiners to ensure they are skilled.

Thoughts: I like this tool as you can create a set of courses for users to attend, and it tracks their completion/progress.  For instance, in a Centre of Excellence, users are expected to have completed some training before being given access to a Power Platform Dev environment.

I have not been able to add my own company's content, so I may have a recording of governance and standards for an environment that devs need to be aware of. I'd like the ability to add wikis or mp4s that users watch and then accept they have completed. It may be there, but I can't find it. Also, the portal's branding should allow enterprises to add their own logos. This would be a great Learning Management System (LMS) with customised content.

Power Automate Flows naming for documentation

I was recently shown this format and I think it's fantastic.  I'm moving all my flows to this Action naming approach:

Format: <Original OOTB name of the Action> | <Verb on Noun>
