New AI and governance features in Power Automate, upgrade to Power Pages also announced.

At Microsoft Ignite 2024, which began Tuesday in Chicago, the company announced a series of low-code product enhancements, targeted at developers, that ranged from new capabilities in Power Apps and Power Pages to new AI and governance features in the codeless automation tool Microsoft Power Automate.

According to a release from Microsoft, the Power Apps upgrade is designed to help build intelligent apps and give users more ways to leverage AI for greater productivity in low-code apps.

The capabilities, which will be in preview next month, include a new way to build complex offerings on the Power Platform. Developers, supported by the Copilot in Power Apps, will be able to define a business problem and then step through and review proposed roles and requirements, working alongside Copilot to help ensure it reflects the true business problem, Microsoft said.
