Use when adding an unspecified data source to an Expo/React Native Power Apps mobile app; routes to Dataverse, SharePoint, or another connector.
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 "${PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/check-version.js"` - if it outputs a message, show it to the user before proceeding.
**📋 Shared instructions: [shared-instructions.md](${PLUGIN_ROOT}/shared/shared-instructions.md)** — read first.
# Add Data Source
**Entry routing:** use the shared [App feature entry points](../../shared/shared-instructions.md#app-feature-entry-points)
preflight before the workflow below.
**Invocation scope:** follow [Data-source invocation scope](../../shared/shared-instructions.md#data-source-invocation-scope)
before any project read or the workflow below. Resolve the absolute app root
before reading memory-bank. Routing selects a data workflow, not implementation
approval or a full-app integration workflow.
Router skill that understands the user's goal and connects them to the right data source — without requiring them to know Power Platform terminology.
## Workflow
### Check Memory Bank
Check for `memory-bank.md` per [shared-instructions.md](${PLUGIN_ROOT}/shared/shared-instructions.md).
### Understand the Goal
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add microsoft/power-platform-skills/add-datasource@sha256:1f10e58c2a76ed00The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.8c4b447, 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.
