About Project App in a Day

This is a beginner level lab for you to get hands on experience with the Microsoft Project for the web and Power Platform technologies – Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI, and Common Data Service. The goal is not to give a training in how to use Project for the web as an end-user, instead these labs will give you an understanding of the data model behind Project for the web, and how Project for the web can be customized on the Power Platform. The lab includes step-by-step instructions for someone new to these technologies to build a basic project management solution within a day. Technologies covered:
