Power Pages Power Pages will expedite site building for a low-code maker or pro developer to build intelligent sites that reimagine the way you interact with your employees, customers, and partners. Power Automate Power Automate will continue to make it easier to build flows by using natural language and multi-modal generative AI capabilities across cloud flows and desktop flows, troubleshooting runs, and manage your automation estate with an end-to-end view. This, along with improvements in process mining to jumpstart creation of automation through Microsoft 365 integration and ongoing improvements to scaling, means it'll be easier than ever for new users to get started and scale.

During the past release wave, we added a Power Platform admin center setting for environments in Settings > Product > Behavior called Show legacy app for admins, which controls the visibility for admins. With this release wave, we treat the Auto option as Off, unless it is explicitly changed. For more information, go to Dynamics 365 - custom hidden for admins.

Some controls also offer improved gesture support and a user experience that matches closer to the design language of the operating system. Feature details Some customers have decided against using the Power Apps mobile app because of low, user interface (UI) performance. Scrolling, transitions, visual glitches, and occasional UI failures are symptoms of a UI that isn’t built for the native operating system. This feature automatically converts canvas apps from web-based technology to React Native, while keeping all the same business logic in place. As a result, canvas apps feel more responsive, are higher quality, and use modern UI conventions such as swipe-to- delete and have better scrolling capabilities. Note: We will incrementally use the most popular, UI controls with native equivalents on mobile devices. The top ten controls account for more than 50% of all app screens. The result is less-complex screens that continue to run in the Webview (a specialized web browser) for some time. However, there are some very compelling scenarios that will run 100% as native UI.

Feature details Accelerate generation of custom AI agents using existing knowledge, logic, and actions already built into Power Apps. These agents will handle tasks autonomously, eliminating repetitive tasks, supercharging individual productivity, and driving overall business efficiency. Makers can collaborate with Copilot to identify automatable workflows they can uplevel, editing the description of the process. This process description is then turned into an autonomous Copilot agent, fully populated with reliable instructions and actions that were pulled from the app. For instance, in a Reimbursement Management app, a maker can take existing steps of the process – categorization, compliance checking, or rejecting incomplete requests – and build a custom agent that will handle these tasks. The agent will leverage the custom Dataverse functions the maker built as part of the app to autonomously complete tasks. With agent builder leveraging the knowledge, logic, and actions already present in apps, the journey to agents in business apps gets significantly shorter. ) Note: The author created this article with assistance from AI.
