We can go in code view mode in Microsoft Azure Logic Apps. Is there anything same like for Microsoft flow as well?
There is no code editor for Microsoft Flow, as stated here. Flow Apps are built via the designer only.
You can export the Flow definition as described here. But that is only to be imported as a Logic App, so no way to update your Flow via code.
HTH.
This will open the JSON code but you wont be able to edit it.

I am trying to Process AAS tabular model using Azure logic app and trying to read status back. I can do this using refreshId manually.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/analysis-services/analysis-services-async-refresh
Any Idea How would i retrieve last refreshId dynamically in azure logic app?
enter image description here
My recommendation would be to simplify your architecture and eliminate the Logic App if you aren't already heavily using Logic Apps. It's not because we don't like Logic Apps. It is just good to simplify the moving parts in an architecture.
It is possible to processing Azure Analysis Services models via ADFv2 with native components. There's no need to use Logic Apps or Azure Batch for custom .NET activities. You can use native activities like Web Activity and Lookup Activity.
You are correct that looking up the refreshID is a bit more complex than it should be. The API to start a refresh asynchronously should return the refreshID in the body of the response and I've provided this feedback here. Please vote for it. In the interim, it's possible to get all the refreshes in the last 30 days and then filter down to the one which started most recently.
I have published an ADFv2 pipeline which uses native activities here. Please give this a try and see if it meets your needs without a Logic App.
I'm a beginner CRM developer and I'm quite confused about the connection methods to CRM.
What's the difference between creating a SOAP service reference to connect to CRM 2011 from a windows form application VS using connection string VS creating a web service?
Are they the same and I can use them interchangeably ? Or it depends on the task I want to do?
Thanks
Out of the 3 links that you have provided, one contains the best approach.
this - CRM SDK says to use this approach when you want to connect with CRM from some other application like Winform app, WPF app, website. In summary, you provide connection values through configuration and then use dlls provided by CRM to access data.
this - This is a special case in CRM. So here you are accessing some data from CRM, processing it in a service and then using that service to access processed data.
this - This document itself says that you should not use this approach. Problem with this approach is about hard coded service references.
You can find plenty of examples to start up with from CRM SDK.
I am doing a survey about cloud paltforms and I have the following the question:
Is it possible to upload a Java/PHP/Python/etc application on Force.com just like you can do with Google App Engine, Heroku, Openshift, etc.?
I looked at the Salesforce website but I couldnt reach a certain conclusion. If I understood correctly, you can upload the code on Heroku and then integrate the application with features of Force.com or something like that.
Could someone shed some light here? Thnx
Force.com has his own language to run custom code on server. This language is called APEX.
Apex is a strongly-typed, object-oriented programming language that
lets you centralize and execute flow and transaction control
statements on the Force.com platform in conjunction with application
calls to Force.com APIs. Using syntax that looks like Java and acts
like database stored procedures, Apex lets you add powerful custom
business logic to most system events, including button clicks, related
record updates, and Visualforce pages. Web service requests and
database triggers on objects can also initiate the execution of Apex
code.
More info in the official apex doc
But you can't upload to salesforce servers any kind of standard code like php/python. If you need to develop your own app using php/python/java + salesforce-api's you will have to upload/run this code on your own server.
Heroku and database.com are closer to what you're after. Heroku will let you upload you Python/Java etc. app and then you can easily connect it to Salesforce-style database.
By "style" I mean one in which you can still use this Apex language in triggers for example or expose pieces of Apex to be called via webservices. Such webservices could be used like "stored procedures" in classic solutions - if you'd want to keep part of the logic on the Force.com side rather than in your app.
Martin's answer is very good. If it's not immediately obvious - there's a "vendor lock-in". You can't run this Apex code anywhere else, only on SF server. There's no open source equivalent like LAMP stack for PHP, Tomcat for Java etc.
I think it will make sense for you to read these 2 questions from "related" sidebar: Disadvantages of the Force.com platform and
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3363333/anyone-moved-off-force-com. They're a bit negative but for your pros/cons type of comparison should give you some highlights.
I am using Visual Studio 2010 to design SSRS reports.
The report is successfully published and will have a link such as below:
http://hostname/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%Reports%2fDistributed&rs:Command=Render&rp_db_catalog=ts
Now when the user goes to the link,
http://hostname/ReportServer
it will show them the rest of the reports available which is a security concern.
Is there a way to hide the report structure from the user?
Thanks,
Bruce
I don't think you can "hide" it, nor should you. You'll need to use another method to secure your reports. Here are a few options:
Secure within the web frontend you're currently using. You'll need to set up user accounts and roles, and permissions for folders. Here's the MSDN starting point, from there you can get to securing folders.
Deliver your reports through Sharepoint, see this bit of MSDN for a starting point.
Integrate ssrs in your application e.g. using the SOAP webservices, an asp.net or winforms app, or through URL access (that last option may even be quite close to what you want).
I need a cloud database as a back-end for a mobile app, most of them will do what I need, but I also need a management interface (ideally web-based, but could be a Windows client) that makes it easy to:
Add/edit data in the database (including cross-table forms)
Report on the database, ideally with dashboards/charts
So I'm wondering if anyone is aware of a web-based too that can be hooked up to one of the main cloud-database providers, that allows me to design forms and reports to manage the data in the database. My goal is to avoid writing all the forms and reports myself so I can focus efforts on the client mobile app.
Right now my "best" solution appears to be Microsoft Access (probably hooked up to Microsoft SQL Azure), and I cannot believe I'd have to sink that low. Save me from this depravity? Please? :)
I've been using SDBNavigator. It's a Chrome browser plugin. Works like a charm.

The App Engine datastore has built in datastore viewers (and editors). On the dev_appserver, this is accessible at /_ah/admin/datastore, and in production it's accessible through your app's admin console. Neither one lets you build forms and reports, though - reports are somewhat out of scope for most NoSQL databases.
If you're prepared to do some coding, you might want to consider Django, which makes constructing admin interfaces extremely straightforward.
If you're using SimpleDB, check out sdbtool. It's a Firefox plugin. Very simple app - never had a problem with it.
You can use SDB Explorer. SDB Explorer is world leading GUI to explore Amazon SimpleDB. It have many features like --
Upload My Sql data to amazon simpledb.
Supports interface for AWS IAM.
Export Domain.
Product support.
