Scary, dangerous, creepy tools 😱😬


There are several powerful tools available in the Power Platform/Dynamics 365 community that can potentially break your system or compromise security. These tools, such as FetchXML Builder, SQL 4 CDS, User Settings Utility, and Level Up for Dynamics 365/Power Apps, can access and manipulate data, change user settings, disable logic in the browser, and modify environment variables. While these tools can be useful for developers and consultants, it is important to understand the security implications and use them responsibly. The primary solution to prevent unauthorized access is to properly configure security roles. It is also worth noting that these tools utilize the SDK provided by Microsoft and are legal to use. Despite the potential risks, these open-source tools are widely used and considered indispensable by many professionals in the field.
