Build Power Apps from a drawing & Power Automate Flows using natural language

Build low code apps and processes easily with the latest updates to Microsoft's Power Platform. Move quickly from ideation on paper, to automatic Power App creation with AI-assisted app development through Express design. Then tie those apps to business processes using natural language to generate automated workflows in Power Automate. For IT admins, we show how the new Managed Environments provide the foundation for better management and governance over data used in your apps and flows.
Business Applications and Platform CVP, Charles Lamanna, joins Jeremy Chapman to go through all the updates with the Power Platform.
