Hi everybody,
I've been thinking about this for a while now, and I'm curious to see what the community has to say. There are a couple of questions I have.
1. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the different options for calling the Web API?
2. Is Flows poised to replace a good deal of the operations now handled by plugins/custom workflows?
My thoughts so far are this: Javascript is useful for UI changes, especially insofar as it can be used in webresources. Plugins seem to be a less verbose way of implementing event-based triggers (CRUD). Flows seems to be a more limited way of addressing similar issues. It seems to me that the benefit of plugins & custom workflows is flexibility, but that their creation often requires external developers (in small companies) and once they are created they are difficult to maintain/update.
What do you all think? Strengths and weaknesses of the four? How much is Microsoft Flows going to change how small businesses manage their CRUD operations?
