    How to add Copilot to your Power Apps | GPT-based User Controls

    How to add Copilot to your Power Apps | GPT-based User Controls

    In Part 3 of our series, add Copilot to a simple app in Power Apps. Copilot user controls are rolling out now in preview. See how to add navigation between screens and conditional formatting using generative AI. Publish and share your app with your team, and integrate it with Microsoft Teams or Sharepoint to make it more discoverable.

    In Part 1 and 2 of the series, we showed the basics of how to build an inventory tracking app from scratch incorporating AI-driven Copilot capabilities. We added a mechanical parts table for data entry and sample data stored in Dataverse on the backend. Then, we added customizations such as new part records, a search function, and incorporated logic to trigger an email notification.

    Emma Cooper, Principal PM Manager for Power Apps, delivers the final installment of our 3-part overview on the fundamentals for building your Power App from scratch.

    How to build your first app using Power Apps | Automatically with Copilot or from scratch

    How to build your first app using Power Apps | Automatically with Copilot or from scratch

    Create low code Power Apps to automate everyday tasks. AI-driven Copilot capabilities make it easy to interact with your app and its data using natural language. Or simply build an app from scratch. We’ll demo how to build an inventory app for mechanical parts, that anyone can use on the job, to track and enter new parts.

    If you’re new to Power Apps, it’s a part of Microsoft’s Power Platform for building low code apps and processes. Apps can originate from a task or process you’d like to make easier – like a streamlined approval process, or a way to capture and track information on the go. Run them in the browser or on your favorite mobile platform.

    Emma Cooper, Principal PM Manager for Power Apps, shares key steps to build your first app in under ten minutes.

    Goodbye Portals, Hello Pages

    Goodbye Portals, Hello Pages

    One of the Nicks is back but Doelman variety decided to take a pill and has gone to greener pastures of the mothership. To fill in the void of his large shoes, George "The Enabler" Doubinski has joined the crew and broken all-Canadian camaraderie. Both Nick & George are rusty after a long break, so the only hot topic of the day is "Who moved my cheese and is it still cheese?" aka "Power Pages" and "I can do Power Apps portals - do I still have a job?". 

    Also turns out, logins are like exercise - everyone says they want to and will do it daily but in reality...

Il est inclus dans la plupart des plans d'abonnement Office 365 et constitue une autre fonctionnalité d'Office 365, tout comme OneDrive, Teams et d'autres.

    David Rivard est un développeur sénior chez Hilo qui est spécialisé avec Dynamics 365 (CRM), Azure et .NET. Actif dans la communauté Power platform, il est auteur de plusieurs composantes open source basés sur le PowerApps Control Framework (PCF) disponible sur son compte GitHub.

    Folge 13: Die Microsoft Power Platzhalter App
    Heute geht es um die Microsoft Power Platzhalter App, die von unseren Kollegen im Rahmen des Microsoft Hackathon 2020 entwickelt wurde und den 2. Platz belegt hat. Zu Gast sind heute Henrik Parusel, Malin Klemm und Jan Boye, die Teil des Hackathon Teams waren. Die App bietet einen Überblick über die vorhandenen und freien Parkplätze an unserem Kieler Standort, damit die lange Parkplatzsuche der Vergangenheit angehört. Außerdem kommuniziert die App auch direkt mit Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central und unterstützt so optimal bei der Abrechnung der Parkgebühren.
