Completed the MCPD Enterprise Application Developer Track

Today I cleared the final paper for MCPD Enterprise Application Developer Track (Exam 70-549).

Now i hold the following certifications,

MCPD Enterprise Application Developer
MCTS Web based Client developement
MCTS Windows based Client developement
MCTS Distributed Application Development

One thing i noticed that many exam questions particularily in Exam 70-549 are quite different
from what is covered in the self paced training kit. So, the passing of the exam depends upon
the experience of the developer as well.

Good luck to all of you who intend to take the test.

PowerApps Form for SharePoint and Access Denied Errors

Image
Error When using SharePoint's Online's customise form option to create PowerApps forms, we may encounter the error below: An error occurred on the server. Server Response: Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or access this resource.  This is often caused by lack of permissions on underlying lists. Scenario I was using multiple list data sources in a single PowerApps list form. Form had staged input screens for related data and a group of end users was not allowed access to the list corresponding to the last stage of input. Nonetheless, when the form opened for any user, PowerApps was trying to load all the data sources resulting in above error. The Fix I could conveniently fix the error by granting at least read-only access to end users on all lists. However, the list causing error had confidential data only restricted to few users.    An easy fix is to add an empty folder, break it's inheritance and assign less privi...

Getting Page Field Value in custom publishing page layout

I wanted to create a custom publishing page layout which should render certain UI elements based on the page metadata. For e.g. a page metadata field called "Page Type" being used to display different links on pages (created with the page layout). Surprisingly, first step in the process i.e. reading the page field using SharePoint Javascript API proved to be rather painful as my good friend google wasn't willing to put it on my plate. Finally came up with some code to get this done so sharing below:---- Include this code into your custom publishing page layout to query page metadata fields within the layout: /**************************************************************************************/ var pageItem; //variable for list item of page being displayed (which uses this page layout) var pageFieldNameVar = '[internal name of a custom page field]' ; //variable for page field to be retrieved var context; // This variable will cont...
