1/n If you're interested in the #MicrosoftFabric announcements from #MSBuild - we have lots of content for you! We were fortunate to be part of the private preview, and we wanted to share what we learned.
A top level post and a long 🧵

@varundikar @azuread @microsoftgraph Having access to the Graph API when using managed identity for Azure DevOps service connections (and AKS pod identity) would facilitate a wide range of automation scenarios.

@MikeLarah @jagregory 😆

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

@jagregory Not sure if this is the official guidance, but that's what we @endjin do - create a specific version tag (i.e. v2.3.3) and then promote a v2 tag to point at the same ref. It's worked well for us, makes it simple to track the latest version of the desired major release.

@grapesfrog @StuartPreston @mouldie @HowardvRooijen I must have missed original plans... in town, but can't stay out, we've guests due :-(

@_jamesdawson hardly your fault, in fact now I kind of feel bad for not redirecting them cruelly robbing them of their interaction with you

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

@jsnover @posh_chef Not yet, I don't think. It was demoed at a recent Chef user group here in London, but I don't think it was recorded.

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

@_jamesdawson Being mistaken for you seems to constitute the majority of my Twitter feed these days ;-)

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

. @jsnover Have you seen @posh_chef? (https://t.co/NoIjpRjubr) A pure Powershell Chef client with DSC at its core - best of both worlds?

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

@HowardvRooijen @grapesfrog @mouldie @StuartPreston @ythos I'm up for that, thoroughly enjoyed catching up with @StuartPreston tonight.

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

@jonand82 Someone on the PowerShell team I assumed, it part of their TechEd session demos.

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

Call me a cynic, but it's interesting how the #staines #flood twitter stream is increasingly populated by repetitive corporate PR accounts.

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

@grapesfrog Hopefully yeah... BobS and I have a session proposed, but I'd like to go even if it isn't accepted.

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

@grapesfrog thank you! Did I see your name on the list of DevOpsDays-goers?

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

@Neptune443 nice one, I'll be interested to see your approach for getting it working.

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

@Neptune443 I eventually finished that post, hope it helps - http://t.co/uxYfWFlFEF

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

I finally finished my post about getting the #powershell #DSC RTM bits working with the web-based pull mode - http://t.co/uxYfWFlFEF

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

@Neptune443 the post is still in progress, they always take longer than expected (at least for me)

[James Dawson @James_Dawson]

Also thanks to @Neptune443 for his post that flags how DSC is picky about the format of zip files it uses. http://t.co/s4t8JEYpcq
