Demos

  • Group voicemail app using SharePoint, Teams, Power Automate & Power Apps – meet the Therapy Playground Voicemail (Power) App that extends Teams (Voice) auto attendant (captures and transcribes messages) by displaying both the mp3 and transcription of message in app. The app tracks responses - who/time/action. This tracking closes the issue/response loop by centralizing and driving response actions. Actions include direct response to customer, forward to another team member. Power Automate flow executes message movement. Discussion at aka.ms/Apr27-Demo1
  • Task management and Timeboxing within the Microsoft ecosystem, driven by a Power Automate flow – presenter uses Planner (business) and To Do (personal) for task management. Problem - how to simplify exposing tasks in Outlook. Solution - Power Automate flow that Syncs entries in To Do, Planner and Outlook calendar. Flow evaluates tasks in Planner, To Do and Outlook, eliminates duplicates and adds new/updated tasks into calendar. Tasks are kept in Planner and To Do (source). Comprehensive flow logic walkthrough. Discussion at aka.ms/Apr27-Demo2
