Introduction to AI Copilot in Microsoft Power Apps

Introduction to AI Copilot in Microsoft Power Apps aims to give an overview of how AI technology is being incorporated into Microsoft’s Power Apps development and into apps themselves. After a brief historical overview, we start by looking at how AI Copilot augments and extends Power App Studio’s low-code/no-code development capabilities by creating an app from a single text prompt. We then see how AI can analyze imported Excel data to create an app to maintain that data. Finally, we use Copilot to add AI functionality to a Power App.
