- If you are a C# developer who wants to create custom connectors for the Power Platform, you will love this new feature in Visual Studio 2022 preview! You can now deploy and debug a Web API project as a custom connector directly from Visual Studio, without leaving your familiar development environment.
In this video, I will show you how to:
✨Create a simple C# Web API
✨Deploy the Web API as a custom connector into the Power Platform right from inside Visual Studio.
✨Use Visual Studio Dev Tunnels to test your connector from a Power App or Flow and debug locally right inside Visual Studio!
Check out the blog post from Marcel Ferreira on the Power Apps team:

This is amazing Scott!!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us, everytime you upload a new video/features it blows my mind 🤯.
I'll definitely use this feature right away!!
Thanks!🎉
Thank you for saying such nice words! I’m really pleased you find my videos useful! This new feature is definitely a cool one! Thanks again for watching and your support 🤩
Thanks for sharing, now that its in preview, we can all give this a go, its going to make connector api development a lot simpler. I hope in the long run they would allow us to debug plugins and custom APIs using this approach rather than using a profiler based debugging.
Thank you for watching ☺️ Debugging plugins like this would be totally awesome!
This is mind blowing
It is isn’t it!! Thanks for watching 😊
Excellent video, out in no time as soon as MS announced. Thank you for the tutorial.
Thank you and thanks for watching ☺️ glad it was helpful.
Thank scott for this amazing video, very helful 👌👌🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!
Thanks a lot, Could you please help me , which is the best way to connect powerapp to cloud oracle servers?
Very cool, thank you Scott!!
Totally agree! I think I say 'cool' about 10 times in the video 😅Thank you for watching and commenting.
@@ScottDurow using debug will save me a lot of deploys 😂
@@SauloOliveira Oh me too!!!! 😅😅
Sorry I didn't get it. Where is the code deployed when you publish the connector ?
H! Thanks for watching! The web api code is deployed to Azure eventually - but you don’t need to when using dev tunnels to debug because it is running on your own machine until you want to publish so that it is externally accessible.
Cool one .... But how to refresh gallery automatically... We need to press that get call button.....
Perhaps you could use a timer?
This is cool, but I'd be worried about licensing costs. Usually if you're going to resort to a code solution it means you might need to do something that requires a bit more computing power. The automatic connector creation is nice as well, but it'd be nice to have similar functionality for any externally-hosted web application. The importing of an OpenAPI definition file is so bare bones at the moment and doesn't even support v3.
Agree on all counts! Thank you for watching and takin the time to comment with your thoughts🤩🤩
