After years of futzing about w/ workarounds and hacks, the new ParseJSON() function in Power Apps has given us a glimpse of how this will work for us going forward. The ability to push data out to other applications has been possible for awhile now, but our ability to consume JSON back into Power Apps easily has eluded most app builders.
While this function is still in the Experimental branch of PowerApps, there is no doubt that some form of this will go forward. The benefits are massive and this changes everything about how we deploy large-scale applications.
Not to mention the possible security benefits |
