I'm trying to get a DropDown list in my PowerApps app to connect its Items to a specific group of users, with help of Azure.
In other words: populate the DropDown with a list of names, e.g. the members of the Economics group I have created elsewhere.
Apparently, following the link: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Discussion/Import-a-List-of-users-from-Azure-AD-Group/td-p/54160 ,
in PowerApps this is not working as-is:
Items = AzureAD.GetGroupMembers("xxxxxxxx-xxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx").value
(Error: "Calling an unknown or not supported function").
I suspect I have to go to the Azure portal and enable something in Azure AD to get it to work, but I feel a bit intimidated before the sheer amount of settings and options
available here. Could anybody please give some guidance?
EDIT: I must not necessarily have Azure doing this (someway it feels like calling the fire department to fill a glass of water for me). If I could do it some other way, feel free to tell me!
Before the AzureAD.GetGroupMembers will be recognised in your app, you have to:
Add Azure AD to your connections in the PowerApps portal
Add the Azure AD connection to your app

Azure boards MS Team integration. Only showing Issues or Epics, where are my work items?
I added a tab into a Team channel, and I can see Issues, but there is not option for showing the Work Item field?
On the Azure Boards website I see both fields: Issues and Work items.
Here is no Work Item field
This is the website showing both types at once
As I understand, you are not able to see work item field.
If you need to see work item field,
you need to connect to a project and not just a repository.
From the connect to a Project dialog.
Use CTRL-Shift to select your options and then choose Connect.
The new Work Items experience is available when you connect to a Azure Repos Git repository.
For further reading please follow the document.
You need to set up and manage subscriptions for creating and updating work items. You can create subscriptions to monitor work items at any time using the #azure boards subscriptions command.
Please go through the documentation for more info.
wow I can believe after almost a year nobody replied you. You can set it up in the Organization Settings > Boards > Settings then you can see the process selected. e.g Agile, Basic (what you mentioned) Scrum, etc.
I hope helped someone after this.
I am new to Azure. I know this is weird question.
But, when I am creating any Storage Account or a VM or say any service instance, I am not able to list it in the service listing after creating. Looks like its created but disappeared.
Due to it, Azure is charging me as I cannot delete the service(e.g a VM) that I created.
Anyone has any insight into this.
You can list/delete it with by using Azure CLI or Azure Powershell Az module.
Did you try checking the notification panel on the top right. Whatever resources are created, it will appear in notification saving "deployed/in progress/etc". Click on go to resource if notification shows it. Also check the dashboard page, if any recent resources are available.
Image shows the home page with recent resources and showing the notification panel.
You can also check your cost analysis. Go to your subscription -> Click on Pay-as-you-go -> Under cost management -> Cost Analysis.
Cost Analysis will tell you, for what services and resources you are getting charged. You can filter the result and view it by resource.
Hope this helps.
Im an azure newbe.
A while ago, I tested out some azure functionality. An app-service to test out azure functions and a webapp.
My (only) resource group is named MyRG (red line in attached picture).
A few weeks after I get the message that all my MSDN Pro-free-quota is used up. I can see that 99.9 of the resources was eaten up by
"FrontEnd_Pool_for_MyRG-appservice" and "Unused_Pool_for_MyRG-appservice"
When I look at my overview (below)
So... to my question:
can I find my costs in the overview, so I can remove/deactivate it? I cant test anything right until tomorrow, since its all deactivated
Bonus question)
Im using this as personal dev area.
What is the easiest way to deactivate a resource when Im not using it, I guess my mistake here was that I didnt deactivate something (expensive). Can I automate deactivation?
(This is the correct answer, in case I forget to log in here in 2 days and mark it)
Created an azure serivice ticket which went surprisingly smooth and fast.
Two calls and I got the answer. Sorry MS if I trashed your customer service, this time it was great :)
Everytime you create an "app service" (second row on my second screenshot), youll get the FrontEnd_Pool/Unused_Pool. I didnt use mine, so I removed it, and the problem should go away.
Thanks Feranto! Your help lead me to the answer!
So for the first question. Yes you can, to do this you should follow the next steps:
Go to the azure portal
Look for the subscription option
Select your subscription
There you can see an overview
Then you can click the graph that says "Costs by resource"
Here you will get a complete detail of your costs by the name of component, what type of component it is and finally to what resource group it belongs
Here you will be able to see every component by its original name, type or resource group name. Hope this works out for you!
And for the bonus question, if you are using PAAS services in azure it is not enough just to stop the service as it is in IAAS with vms. The only way to stop an app service from charging you is either deleting it or updating the App plan service to the Free tier. I would recommend the second one.
This is in the first faq in Microsoft's App Service website. :
Am I charged for apps while they are in stopped state?
Yes. Rates listed apply to apps in stopped state. Please delete apps
that are not in use or update tier to Free to avoid charges.
You can automate this process(either deleting or updating app service plan) trough the use of Azure Clients like the REST API, azure-cli or powershell.
I recently setup two of our apps to use app insights (coming from Elmah). But now I need to give the QA and BA teams access to view the error logs. What's the best way to do this? Do they need an azure account as well? Is there a windows app viewer, etc? I fear navigating the azure portal might be a little too complicated for them.
Thank you!
They don't need to have Azure account to view AI resource in Azure, as they need is live ID. You can add them clicking on Users icon-> Users blade -> Add access.
I would say this is the easiest way, another approach would be to set up Continuous export and export data to something like PowerBI, but this is much more involved.
We have added Application Insights to our app, but I'm unable to make the application insights data availible to other developers (azure users). This is what I've tried:
Added a new Resource Group
Added a new Application Resource to it
Added a colleague that has another azure subscription, added as role Contributor to the resource group
Verified that the user is listed as inherited access in the application insight resource
Application insights data is showing up fine in my portal, problem is that my colluages are not able to locate the resource or the resource group in her azure portal. I've tried by sending a link, but the azure portal just says "loading"
Question is: Do I need to give some other access to allow for sharing application insights?
Thanks for any help

Since you mention "developer" I'm assuming you are both using separate MSDN subscriptions, and thats whats causing the issue. If this is the scenario that you are each using your own MSDN subscriptions when you log in, the other developer need to "switch" to your "directory" after they sign in, in order to see the things you gave them access to. Once the other dev is logged in to the azure portal, have them click their name in the upper right of the browser window, and in that dropdown there will likely be an additional "directory" that they can select which effectively switches them to see things that are inside your subscription+directory. Its this extra level of the "Directory" that is probably hiding your AI resource from him.
I experienced this problem first hand in the exact scenario you have described.
There is a lot of information about setting up access control for Application Insights here: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/app-insights-resources-roles-access-control/
It looks like you've done most of those things, but you might want to double check just in case. Also, you shouldn't need to assign them "contributor", which would allow them to edit things, you should only need to give them "reader" access so they can see the data.
