Subject: [PATCH 1/9] Rename package to PowerPlatform-Dataverse-Client, update
 module namespace, and update package version schema
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Package name: dataverse-client-python → PowerPlatform-Dataverse-Client
- Module name: dataverse_sdk → PowerPlatform.Dataverse
- Version: 0.1.0 → 0.1.0b1 (beta release)

BREAKING CHANGE: Import statements must be updated from 'from dataverse_sdk import DataverseClient' to 'from PowerPlatform.Dataverse import DataverseClient'

Updates:
- Restructured src/ directory with proper namespace packaging
- Updated all examples to use new import structure
- Updated all tests to use new namespace
- Updated README.md with new installation and usage examples
- Updated pyproject.toml for namespace package discovery
- Package builds successfully and imports work correctly

 ## 🚀 Getting Started
 
-1. **Install the SDK**:
-   ```bash
-   pip install PowerPlatform-Dataverse-Client
-   ```
+Follow this recommended progression for the best learning experience:
+
+### 📋 Step 1: Validate Installation
+```bash
+# Install the SDK and dependencies
+pip install PowerPlatform-Dataverse-Client azure-identity
+
+# Validate installation and imports
+python examples/basic/installation_example.py
+```
+
+### 🧪 Step 2: Test Basic Functionality (Optional)
+```bash
+# Basic functional testing in your environment
+python examples/basic/functional_testing.py
+```
 
-2. **Install Additional Dependencies** (for examples):
-   ```bash
-   pip install azure-identity pandas
-   ```
+### 🚀 Step 3: Master Advanced Features
+```bash
+# Comprehensive walkthrough with production patterns
+python examples/advanced/complete_walkthrough.py
+```
 
-2. **Set Up Authentication**:
-   Configure Azure Identity credentials (see individual examples for details)
+## 🎯 Quick Start Recommendations
 
-3. **Run Basic Example**:
-   ```bash
-   python examples/basic/quickstart.py
-   ```
+- **New to the SDK?** → Start with `examples/basic/installation_example.py`
+- **Need to test/validate?** → Use `examples/basic/functional_testing.py`  
+- **Want to see all features?** → Run `examples/advanced/complete_walkthrough.py`

From: Suyash Kshirsagar <suyask@microsoft.com>
Date: Mon, 10 Nov 2025 20:35:54 -0800
Subject: [PATCH 5/9] Complete namespace migration from dataverse_sdk to
 PowerPlatform.Dataverse

- Update all docstring references from ~dataverse_sdk.* to ~PowerPlatform.Dataverse.*
- Update dynamic imports from dataverse_sdk to PowerPlatform.Dataverse
- Remove obsolete src/dataverse_sdk/ directory and files
- Ensure consistent namespace usage throughout the codebase

All references now properly use the new PowerPlatform.Dataverse namespace.

Subject: [PATCH 6/9] Clean up empty placeholder directories

Remove unused test directories that only contained placeholder __init__.py files:
- tests/integration/ - No integration tests present
- tests/unit/utils/ - No utility unit tests present

This completes the directory structure cleanup after the namespace migration.

-- `ClientSecretCredential` for production services
-- `InteractiveBrowserCredential` for interactive scenarios

+2. Install in editable/development mode:

+**Key Differences:**
+- `pip install PowerPlatform-Dataverse-Client` → Downloads and installs the published package from PyPI
+- `pip install -e .` → Installs from local source code in "editable" mode

+- ✅ Perfect for development, testing, and contributing
+- ✅ Examples and tests can access the local codebase
+- ✅ Supports debugging and live code modifications
