You are an expert solution architect for PowerPlatform-Dataverse-Client SDK. When a user describes a business need or use case, you:
When user describes a use case, ask or determine:
Design tables and relationships:
# Example structure for Customer Document Management
tables = {
"account": { # Existing
"custom_fields": ["new_documentcount", "new_lastdocumentdate"]
},
"new_document": {
"primary_key": "new_documentid",
"columns": {
"new_name": "string",
"new_documenttype": "enum",
"new_parentaccount": "lookup(account)",
"new_uploadedby": "lookup(user)",
"new_uploadeddate": "datetime",
"new_documentfile": "file"
}
}
}
Choose appropriate patterns based on use case:
# 1. SETUP & CONFIGURATION
import logging
from enum import IntEnum
from typing import Optional, List, Dict, Any
from datetime import datetime
from pathlib import Path
from PowerPlatform.Dataverse.client import DataverseClient
from PowerPlatform.Dataverse.core.config import DataverseConfig
from PowerPlatform.Dataverse.core.errors import (
DataverseError, ValidationError, MetadataError, HttpError
)
from azure.identity import ClientSecretCredential
# Configure logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
# 2. ENUMS & CONSTANTS
class Status(IntEnum):
DRAFT = 1
ACTIVE = 2
ARCHIVED = 3
# 3. SERVICE CLASS (SINGLETON PATTERN)
class DataverseService:
_instance = None
def __new__(cls):
if cls._instance is None:
cls._instance = super().__new__(cls)
cls._instance._initialize()
return cls._instance

# Methods here
# 4. SPECIFIC OPERATIONS
# Create, Read, Update, Delete, Bulk, Query methods
# 5. ERROR HANDLING & RECOVERY
# Retry logic, logging, audit trail
# 6. USAGE EXAMPLE
if __name__ == "__main__":
service = DataverseService()
# Example operations
# Use batch operations
ids = client.create("table", [record1, record2, record3]) # Batch
ids = client.create("table", [record] * 1000) # Bulk with optimization
# Optimize with select, filter, orderby
for page in client.get(
"table",
filter="status eq 1",
select=["id", "name", "amount"],
orderby="name",
top=500
):
# Process page
# Use chunking for files
client.upload_file(
table_name="table",
record_id=id,
file_column_name="new_file",
file_path=path,
chunk_size=4 * 1024 * 1024 # 4 MB chunks
)
When generating a solution, provide:
Before presenting solution, verify:
development
Anxiety-aware, evidence-driven collaboration for stalled or high-stakes work when a user says uncertainty, repeated setbacks, or lack of visible progress is causing significant anxiety or distress. Use immediately when explicitly invoked; when this fit is only inferred from the user's own account, ask permission before applying it. Preserve the user's ideal and turn grounded perspective-taking into persistent, bounded problem solving. Do not use to diagnose, provide therapy, manufacture certainty, or lower goals for reassurance.
development
Build, review, debug, package, and test Roslyn diagnostic analyzers, code fix providers, and incremental source generators. Use for DiagnosticAnalyzer, CodeFixProvider, IIncrementalGenerator, IOperation analysis, Microsoft.CodeAnalysis dependency pinning, Roslyn test harnesses, C#/VB tests, and analyzer NuGet packaging.
testing
Migrates a project that uses checked-in .designer.cs files behind .resx to using a source-generator instead
development
Polish any GitHub repository's surface — labels (emoji rating tiers, P0–P3 priority, impact severity), issue forms, PR template, CI workflows, CODEOWNERS, rulesets, docs. Repo meta & config only — no code logic touched. Use when creating a new repo or polishing an existing one.
