Business Value

Makers can use generative AI prompts to improve data quality so users can efficiently process customer feedback and inquiries.

Feature Details

Information workers face an overwhelming amount of data and spend a lot of time reading and processing it every day. They also spend a lot of time preparing responses to inquiries and organizing information for analysis.

With this feature, you can easily generate data and summarize it into information. You can prioritize responses based on urgency (sentiment), categorize responses (classify), extract pertinent info like email addresses and phone numbers, and generate replies by using Microsoft Dataverse generative AI prompts. You can define and extend this enriched information as part of the record and query it.

                                  Business Value

                                  Integration with source control systems plays an important role in enterprise software development change management. With this integration, you can audit all changes, review changes before you deploy them to production environments, and protect yourself from mistakes by easily rolling back changes. This feature also supports larger team development with multiple isolated development environments.

                                  Feature Details

                                  This feature enables you to provide an Azure DevOps source code repository to bind to the environment and solutions. When you make changes to solution components, you can commit those changes to the repository. You can pull changes to the source code that you make from other environments or through direct modification of the files. You identify and resolve conflicts between those changes.

                                  You can build solution files for deployment to other environments directly from source control without having an environment present. Use Power Platform tooling or pipelines in Power Platform to deploy solution files to other environments. Use advanced source management techniques and implement governance controls to ensure the quality of code and deployments to other environments are consistent with your policies and practices.

                                    Makers get an improved experience when they work with unmanaged customizations in Microsoft Dataverse. Users spend less time investigating issues related to unmanaged customizations and can better organize solutions.

                                    Feature Details

                                    This feature improves the maker experience so that citizen developers can easily spot unmanaged changes and work with those changes in bulk. They can move changes to an unmanaged solution or remove changes when they're unnecessary. With these changes, citizen developers encounter fewer issues with solutions that come from missing dependencies or unintentional layers that hide other solution changes. Managing solutions requires significantly less effort.

                                    These changes appear in the solutions experiences in Power Apps (make.powerapps.com):

                                    • A new Customized column in solution views shows if a solution object has active customizations.

                                          You can protect against data exfiltration by managing and controlling what apps run in your Dataverse environment. Data exfiltration safeguards prevent unauthorized removal of sensitive information from your environment. With these safeguards, your business maintains continuity and complies with regulatory requirements.

                                          Feature Details

                                          By default, when you turn on the App access control feature, only approved apps run in an environment, such as Dynamics 365 Sales or Dynamics 365 Customer Service. The local environment admin chooses which apps users can run in the environment. The feature blocks unauthorized apps when users try to access them.

                                          To help admins choose which apps to approve, turn on audit mode for at least one week to collect a list of apps that users run in an environment. With this audit log list, admins can decide which apps to allow or block.

                                          For apps you allow, assign security roles to restrict who can run those apps in the environment. Only users assigned to the security role can run the apps.

                                          Admins can go to the Security > Access controls page in the Power Platform admin center and turn on the App access control feature. Admins select the applications and security roles to allow access.

                                            Business Value

                                            Use the assisted mapping feature to ingest data into existing Microsoft Dataverse tables faster and with greater confidence. This feature in standard dataflows uses AI to recommend existing Dataverse tables for your new data. After you select a table, the feature suggests column mappings based on the semantic meaning of column names and column data types. It also helps improve data quality by alerting you to any column type mismatches before you publish the dataflow.

                                            Feature Details

                                            This feature updates the Load to existing table option within standard dataflows in Power Platform. It updates the user interface and adds functionality that recommends existing Dataverse tables for new data. When you select a target Dataverse table, the feature recommends how to map the columns and alerts you to any type mismatches.

                                              Business Value

                                              Support the application lifecycle management (ALM) process by updating security role privileges after managed solution import.

                                              Feature Details

                                              When a Power Platform admin updates security roles that system predefined, customizable, or custom security roles previously imported through a Dataverse managed solution, importing an update to the managed solution that contains those security roles or refreshing those security roles overwrites the updates.

                                              This feature merges the system predefined customizable security roles, custom security roles, and privileges with the updates to security roles and privileges that the Power Platform admin makes in an environment. The feature doesn't overwrite existing updates.

                                                Business Value

                                                Solution management stands out because of its end-to-end application lifecycle management (ALM) capabilities in Copilot Studio. It deeply integrates with Microsoft 365. With other products, you need to use ALM tools outside the product or from the market. Solution management in Copilot Studio gives you ALM capabilities to create, edit, extend, and deploy copilots. It offers ease of use, better results, and cost-effectiveness.

                                                Feature Details

                                                Key features:

                                                  Business Value

                                                  When IT admins, makers, or developers enable this capability, they bypass Microsoft Dataverse plug-ins at the request level before migration. Rapidly migrate your data without dealing with workflow execution.

                                                  Feature Details

                                                  During data ingestion, the system supports bypassing these types of logic:

                                                  1. BypassBusinessLogicExecution logic: To bypass this logic, provide the values CustomSync, CustomAsync, or both CustomSync and CustomAsync values. Use these values to bypass synchronous logic, asynchronous logic, or both types of logic.
                                                  2. BypassBusinessLogicExecutionStepIds logic: To bypass specific plug-in steps, provide a comma-separated list of plug-in step registrations.
                                                  3. BypassCustomPluginExecution logic: To bypass synchronous logic, use this parameter. Although the system supports this parameter, we don't recommend it. For the same result, use BypassBusinessLogicExecution with the CustomSync value.

                                                    Business Value

                                                    You can now associate email activity records with extra activity participants, like accounts, contacts, leads, and opportunities, by using a new partylist attribute. Previously, you couldn't associate an activity record with extra related party records. With this feature, you can associate email activity records with extra related parties, such as an email related to multiple cases or opportunities.

                                                    Feature Details

                                                    Users can associate an email activity record with extra related party records. This capability lets users associate an email with extra related records, such as cases or opportunities.

                                                    Sometimes, users need to associate an email with multiple records. For example, a customer sends an email that's related to multiple cases. The existing Regarding lookup only lets users relate an email to one parent record. You can now associate email records with multiple records, such as accounts, contacts, leads, opportunities, and cases, by using a new activity party type column named related. When you associate an email with multiple records, it appears in the timeline for each associated record.

                                                    Note

                                                    This feature supports only email activities.

                                                    The related column isn't part of the email form by default. To enable users to use this column, add it to the email form. For more information about how to add a column to a form, see Add columns to a form. When you add the related column to the form, users can associate an email record with other related party records, such as cases or opportunities.

                                                      Business Value

                                                      When you link Microsoft Dataverse to Microsoft Fabric, you can access Dataverse data to work with Fabric tools. You can combine your Dynamics 365 and Dataverse data with data in Fabric that comes from your data warehouses, devices, sensors, or other clouds through shortcuts. You can join and aggregate data, and you can apply AI and machine learning to detect patterns and trends. Insights are only valuable when you can act on them. Now, you can bring the insights you find in Fabric, such as key performance indicators (KPIs) and aggregated data, into make.powerapps.com so that makers can build apps and act without making copies or using non-Microsoft tools.

                                                      Feature Details

                                                      When you use the link to Microsoft Fabric feature in Dataverse, you can extend your data and insights in Dynamics 365 and Power Apps to Microsoft Fabric. Bring your data into Microsoft Fabric and combine, reshape, and aggregate data from Dataverse. Use Microsoft Fabric tools such as SQL, Spark, and dataflows to work with your data. For example, you can:

                                                      • Combine financial data from Dynamics 365 with financial data from other systems to get consolidated insights.
                                                      • Merge historical data ingested into OneLake from legacy systems with current business data from Dynamics 365 and Dataverse.
                                                      • Combine web logs and telemetry data from your website with product and order details from Dynamics 365.
                                                      • Apply machine learning to detect anomalies and exceptions within your data.

                                                      Insights aren't complete unless you can drive action and business processes. Bring insights you find in Microsoft Fabric to build apps. Use Power Automate to drive business processes without copying data. This solution requires no extract, transform, and load (ETL) processes or non-Microsoft integration tools.

                                                      With Dataverse virtual tables sourced from Microsoft Fabric, your low-code app builders connect to data in OneLake. They build apps with Power Apps to drive business actions. With Power Pages, low-code makers can build external-facing websites. They drive action from OneLake insights with partners, suppliers, and customers.

                                                        Business Value

                                                        With the new Dataverse search configuration in Power Platform admin center, you can choose between Dataverse relevant search (global search) for business apps, rich Copilot search on Dataverse data for agents, or disable search on Dataverse data entirely. This configuration gives you granular control to help manage storage capacity.

                                                        Feature Details

                                                        Enhanced Dataverse search

                                                        Dataverse search improves its indexing process to make search more efficient and deliver a higher-quality search experience. All generative AI-powered experiences, such as Copilot and Agents, require Dataverse search.

                                                        Enable Dataverse search so users get a better search experience in model-driven apps and can use generative AI capabilities.

                                                        When users turn on enhanced semantic indexing for features like Copilot and Agents, Dataverse search uses more storage. This change depends on Copilot feature availability.

                                                          Business Value

                                                          Microsoft is strengthening authentication for all users, including those who use finance and operations apps. To improve security, we removed the option to authenticate with self-minted certificates or certificates from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Lifecycle Services. With this change, authentication is more secure, and tenants don't need to turn off multifactor authentication (MFA).

                                                          Feature Details

                                                          With this release, you can use Microsoft Entra ID certificate-based authentication for RSAT. This authentication model issues user account certificates for Microsoft Entra ID accounts. You install the certificate locally in the RSAT environment and use it as evidence during authentication. This model supports per-user configuration, so the certificate can provide evidence for MFA. Microsoft Entra ID certificate-based authentication is a free feature available with all editions of Microsoft Entra ID. It removes the dependency on the premium Microsoft Azure Active Directory conditional access policy.

                                                          This release replaces prior versions.

                                                            With this capability, you can test Power Apps and eliminate regressions. You get more robust applications with fewer bugs. When you run the tests as part of the build pipelines, you make sure that problems never reach production.

                                                            Feature Details

                                                            The test engine can test canvas apps and model-driven apps from the Power Platform command-line tool or directly from the application. The test engine is open source.

                                                            The test engine uses updated authentication that meets current requirements. It's built on an extensible platform, so you can add new features. The test engine supports AI feature testing and other new capabilities. All tests use Power Fx in YAML files. Makers and pro developers can use the test engine. Developers can integrate with Playwright to create tests in C#. You can find many samples and documentation in the test engine GitHub repo and in Microsoft Learn articles.

Make the search and Copilot customer managed key processes continue to run while the system is up. This approach reduces system downtime and enhances the user experience.

                                                                Feature Details

                                                                Reduce system downtime by running the long-running search process and Copilot index process at the same time while the system runs. The system uses the new encryption status Encrypting - online. With this status, users can access the system while the search process and the Copilot index process finish without affecting the user or system experience.

                                                                Admins can monitor the progress for applying customer managed key encryption in the Power Platform admin center. When the encryption status changes from Encrypting to Encrypting - online, admins can tell users the system is available.

                                                                            Business Value

                                                                            To comply with standard security protocols, Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises) servers must meet the standard Transport Layer Security (TLS) and current cipher suite requirements. This requirement includes any on-premises server that communicates server-to-server with online Dynamics 365 or Power Apps services. Examples of these servers are Exchange Server (on-premises) and web servers that host clients or services. Deprecated cipher suites include non-supported cipher suites such as TLS_RSA. For improved security, faster handshakes, enhanced privacy, and simplified cipher suites, use the TLS 1.3 protocol.

                                                                            Feature Details

                                                                            Use on-premises servers for the following services:

                                                                            1. Server-side sync for Exchange emails.
                                                                            2. Outbound plug-ins.
                                                                            3. Web server-to-server integration.
                                                                            4. Environment discovery with the regional discovery service.

                                                                            Upgrade the TLS protocol on Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises) computers and network from TLS 1.2 to TLS 1.3 to secure communications over the internet.

                                                                            TLS 1.3 simplifies and enhances security by using only three cipher suites with perfect forward secrecy (PFS) and authenticated encryption with additional data (AEAD). This version streamlines the protocol and ensures robust security. Key improvements include:

                                                                            • Privacy enhancements: Minimal cleartext protocol bits prevent protocol ossification and hide content length. This feature reduces visible user information on the network.
                                                                            • Confidential client authentication: TLS 1.3 ensures client authentication is always confidential. This version of TLS removes the need for renegotiation and reduces round trips and CPU costs.

                                                                            TLS 1.3 provides better security, privacy, and efficiency than TLS 1.2.

                                                                                  Feature Details

                                                                                  As part of regular business processes with Microsoft Dataverse, users often delete records or transactions either manually or systematically. Users might delete records or transactions through planned processes or accidental processes. They might use system processes, single selection, multiple selections, or bulk deletion. Retrieving deleted data is hard, and you often can't recover deleted records. To address this limitation, the recycle bin enables you to recover table record data from any type of delete scenario within a specified configurable timeframe. You can recover data from both the user interface and APIs or SDK.

Creating these elements from scratch each time is time-consuming and can lead to errors. With catalogs in Power Platform, you can customize templates for your organization. You can share these templates with others, so everyone has better starting points for building.

                                                                                      Feature Details

Makers can publish unmanaged solutions into the catalog for themselves or others to use in the future as more customized and useful starting points.

                                                                                      A centralized page to discover useful templates includes those templates that your organization creates, standard components and apps that Microsoft provides, and solutions from authorized partners. Makers can get these templates and components from the catalog and save their own copies to build from.

                                                                                      The catalog also supports managed items. Use these items as is with little extra editing. The catalog keeps the connection to the original solution for future updates and versioning.
