** "Microsoft Dataverse Internals: Security Roles Storage Mystery Resolved"
A recent article on Dev.to shed light on a lesser-known aspect of Microsoft's Dataverse platform. Researchers discovered that security roles for forms are not stored in any table within the database, but rather hidden in the form XML DisplayConditions node.
This finding has significant implications for developers and administrators working with Dataverse. The absence of explicit storage for these roles can make it challenging to retrieve this information using simple queries. However, an API called RetrieveDependentComponentsRequest provides a solution, making it easier to access related metadata objects.
