This week at Ignite, Microsoft introduced the next generation of Microsoft Power Apps. This means the introduction of a new experience that makes building apps as intuitive as explaining an idea, and a seamless integration between apps and agents. It also allows the ability to host and manage all of the apps in a single place.
Side Panes in Model Driven Apps have been around for some time now, and we have used them for showing Entity Lists, Entity Records and web resources. In addition to the standard types that we can display in the side panes we can also display custom pages and PCF controls
In this post, I review and simplify some of the different terminology as it related to Artificial Intelligence.
Generative Pages have been in Private Preview for a few months now and there is a lot of excitement on this feature. If you have not heard about this feature yet, Generative Pages leverage AI to simplify the creation of pages in model-driven apps.
On February 18th, 2025 Microsoft announced the public preview of the data exploration agent for Model driven apps. This new agent provides the ability to find records using complex filters using Copilot and Natural language to describe what data you are looking for.
Today, February 12th, 2024 Microsoft will start rolling out a new Copilot experience in Microsoft Teams. This new experience is an improved version of the Copilot app in Teams (formerly known as Microsoft 365 chat). The feature includes the same functionality and content of the current app, but also includes some additional benefits.
Yesterday 3/16, Microsoft announced copilot will become available in both Microsoft 365 products as well as the Power Platform. Copilot introduces a new way of enhanced working powered with AI. These AI capabilities are available in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, Power Apps, Power Automate and Power Virtual Agents and will likely become available in other Microsoft products in the future.
