One Big PnP Template or Many Small Ones?
After testing with DevProxy, I found that monolithic PnP templates silently destroy your retry strategy. Here's what I learned.
Using Dev Proxy to break Microsoft 365 APIs on purpose: simulating throttling and failures locally so you find out before your users do.
Dev Proxy lets you break Microsoft 365 APIs on purpose, on your machine, before your users break them for you.
Nearly all the material out there is Microsoft’s own documentation, which tells you what the tool does. What I wanted was recipes. Simulate a 429 with a Retry-After header and check that your backoff is real. Fail one request inside a batch and see whether your mapping code copes. Make a provisioning step return 404 for ten seconds and find out whether your orchestration survives it.
That is what these posts are. Testing failure paths is the least fun part of this stack, and the part that has saved me the most time.
