{/* MANUAL-CONTENT-START:intro */}
[Microsoft Dataverse](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/data-platform/data-platform-intro) is a powerful cloud data platform for securely storing, managing, and interacting with structured business data. The Microsoft Dataverse integration enables you to programmatically create, read, update, delete, and link records in Dataverse tables as part of your workflow and automation needs.

With Microsoft Dataverse integration, you can:

- **List and query records:** Access lists of records or query with advanced filters to find the data you need from any Dataverse table.
- **Create and update records:** Add new records or update existing ones in any table for use across Power Platform, Dynamics 365, and custom apps.
- **Delete and manage records:** Remove records as part of data lifecycle management directly from your automation flows.
- **Associate and disassociate records:** Link related items together or remove associations using entity relationships and navigation properties—essential for reflecting complex business processes.
- **Work with any Dataverse environment:** Connect to your organization’s environments, including production, sandbox, or Dynamics 365 tenants, for maximum flexibility.
- **Integrate with Power Platform and Dynamics 365:** Automate tasks ranging from sales and marketing data updates to custom app workflows—all powered by Dataverse's security and governance.

The Dataverse integration empowers solution builders and business users to automate business processes, maintain accurate and up-to-date information, create system integrations, trigger actions, and drive insights—all with robust security and governance.

Connect Microsoft Dataverse to your automations to unlock sophisticated data management, orchestration, and business logic across your apps, teams, and cloud services.
