About this episode

Jed Brown discusses how to create a fully functional Power App using existing business data in under a minute.

Build a fully working model-driven app from your existing Dataverse, SharePoint, or SQL data in under a minute — screens, navigation, and forms included. Generate new pages from a natural language prompt with Generative Pages, auto-populate records from any document in seconds with Automatic Form Fill, and embed Copilot to query your app data directly. Layer in an Agent Feed to proactively surface decisions, missing data, and action items, then connect to Outlook and Microsoft 365 through Work IQ to act on your app data without leaving your inbox. Jed Brown, Power Platform Group Product Manager, shares how to turn existing business data into a modern, AI-powered app. ► QUICK LINKS: 00:00 - Create apps using Power Apps 01:07 - Create an app from existing data 02:26 - Copilot + Form Fill Assist 03:46 - AI-generated pages from a prompt 04:53 - Agent feed for proactive intelligence 06:16 - M365 integration via Work IQ 06:46 - Wrap up ► Link References Build your first Power App today at https://make.powerapps.com ► Unfamiliar with Microsoft Mechanics?
