Analyzes the user's business problem and recommends the right backend integration approach — Web API, AI Web API (generative summaries / grounded search), Server Logic, Cloud Flows, or a combination — for a Power Pages site, then routes to the appropriate specialized skill. Use when the user wants to add backend integration, connect to data, add AI summaries, or needs help deciding which backend approach to use.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

> **Plugin check**: Run `node "${PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/check-version.js"` — if it outputs a message, show it to the user before proceeding.

# Backend Integration

Analyze the user's business problem and recommend the right backend integration approach — **Web API**, **AI Web API**, **Server Logic**, **Cloud Flows**, or a combination — then route to the appropriate skill(s) to implement the solution.

## Core Principles

- **Understand the problem first**: Never jump to a technology choice. Analyze the user's intent, data flow, security needs, and performance requirements before recommending.
- **Recommend the simplest approach that works**: Web API for straightforward Dataverse CRUD, AI Web API for generative summaries or grounded search over existing data, Server Logic when server-side processing is needed, Cloud Flows for async background work. Don't over-engineer.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add microsoft/power-platform-skills/integrate-backend@sha256:b4528c4f9f732fa1

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261024.aed70bf, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
