Throughout this chapter, you have developed a good understanding of Microsoft Dataverse for Teams. You have also looked at each of these components – Power Apps, Power Automate, Power Virtual Agents, and Microsoft Dataverse for Teams – and how they come together to empower citizen developers to build low-code/no-code applications, flows, and bots, and thereby usher in the era of digital transformation within their organizations.

In the next chapter, we will look at building our first application using Microsoft Dataverse for Teams. This application will be a health scan application, very relevant in current times, which can be leveraged by most organizations that require a physical presence on site, be it in offices, construction sites, hospitals, or schools.
