FAQs

A model-driven app in Dynamics 365 is a type of application designed to provide a structured, data-centric experience for users. Unlike canvas apps, model-driven apps are built on the Common Data Service (Dataverse) and automatically generate UI components based on the underlying data model. This ensures that businesses can quickly deploy scalable solutions that improve efficiency, standardise processes, and enhance customer engagement.

This course is ideal for functional consultants, business analysts, IT professionals, Dynamics 365 developers, and CRM administrators who are responsible for implementing or maintaining Dynamics 365 Customer Experience solutions.

Participants will also learn to manage security roles, integrate model-driven apps with other Microsoft solutions, and optimise apps for usability, performance, and governance.

By learning to configure model-driven apps effectively, participants can deliver streamlined, user-friendly applications that provide accurate and timely customer information. This enables faster decision-making, personalised interactions, and automated processes, all of which enhance overall customer satisfaction and business efficiency.
