Microsoft has released its September 2026 Power Platform feature update, bringing together the latest product, learning, and community updates across Power Platform. The update highlights new capabilities across Power Apps, Power Automate, Power Pages, and AI, giving makers and developers new ways to build and enhance business solutions.
Here’s what you need to know:
Power Platform: Gain Hands-On Power Platform and AI Experience with Power Series
Want a more practical way to build your Power Platform and AI skills? Power Series from the Power CAT team now offers 20 hands-on labs, giving customers, partners, and field teams a self-service way to learn how to choose capabilities, build solutions, and make informed design decisions.
Power Apps: Create Polished Canvas Apps Faster with Fluent Templates
Building canvas app screens from scratch can take time, especially when you need responsive layouts and consistent designs. Six new screen templates based on Fluent 2 patterns, alongside three previously released Fluent templates, give makers ready-to-use starting points that can be connected to data and customised for their needs.
Power Automate: Get started faster with Quick Start cards
Finding the right starting point for an automation can slow down the journey from idea to flow. New Quick Start cards on the Power Automate home page provide direct entry points for common scenarios, helping users discover what they can automate and start building flows faster.
Agentic apps: Modernise model-driven apps with a refreshed UI and display density
The latest model-driven app updates make it easier to work with more content while spending less time navigating the interface. The refreshed header and navigation experience is now generally available, while Display Density is available in public preview with Comfortable, Cozy, and Compact options.
AI-powered development: Embed generative pages directly into model-driven app forms
Generative pages can now be added directly to a section or tab within a model-driven app form instead of appearing only as standalone pages. By passing the current record ID to the generative page, makers can combine structured form fields with tailored, AI-generated experiences that are specific to the record being viewed.
