Business value
Microsoft Dataverse business events enable the ability to trigger automation based on high-value events that occur within or external to Microsoft Dataverse.
Feature details
Within Microsoft Dataverse, specific high-value events can be identified and cataloged. These events may be either data events or actions. Custom Actions (for example, either Custom APIs or Custom process actions) can be created and cataloged. When created and invoked, this API acts as a trigger for automation that responds to the event. One place these cataloged events appear is in the Power Automate Dataverse connector when selecting the new When an action is performed trigger.
