Unlock the power of data with Microsofts Copilot for Model-Driven Power Apps – an AI assistant for easy, efficient data access.

"Lisa Crosbie [MVP]" has recently introduced the Microsoft Copilot for Model-Driven Power Apps in a video tutorial. This advanced AI assistant enables users to retrieve data within the app, eliminating the need for extensive database querying or producing separate reports. The tutorial includes comprehensive, step-by-step guidance on setting up the Copilot, specifically demonstrating how to choose which tables and columns the Copilot should use to perform searches and provide answers.

She further explains the model-driven app design approach, which centers on adding components like forms, views, charts, and dashboards to tables with the help of an app designer tool. This strategy is particularly effective for process-driven applications that entail data denseness and facilitate smooth navigation between related records.

"Lisa Crosbie [MVP]" also draws a parallel between the model-driven methodology and canvas app development, pointing out that while the app designer can control the app layout entirely in canvas app development, much of the user interface in model-driven apps is pre-determined by the components added to the app.

Moreover, she lays out the stages of building a model-driven app, which includes modeling business data, defining business processes, composing the app, and customizing security roles.

She wraps up by outlining the benefits of using solutions to aid with Application Lifecycle Management, which involves developing an app from conception to its end-of-life. The solutions act as wrappers for all the necessary elements to deliver a product for use within a business.

Delving into Model-Driven Power Apps

Model-Driven Power Apps are a revolutionary approach to app building. It focuses on streamlining the process by emphasizing on data and relationships among them. This not only eliminates redundancy but ensures a smooth navigation experience for the users. These apps are equipped with AI assistants like Microsoft Copilot, which can answer user queries, thereby eliminating the need for database querying. The model-driven approach repeatedly proves to be an efficient alternative to canvas app development, with its built-in responsive design and agile build process.

In this video, Microsoft Copilot for Model-Driven Power Apps is introduced. This AI assistant allows users to query data within the app, making it convenient to find information without database querying or report creating. A step-by-step guide is provided to set up Copilot, explaining how to select which tables and columns to use for search and answering queries.

  • Model-driven app design encompasses the addition of components like forms, views, and charts and dashboards to tables using an app designer tool. These apps can be developed with very little or no code, and the complexity can range from simple to advanced versions.
  • Model-driven apps make it easy for users to navigate between related records. They are ideally suited for apps that manage complex processes and are data-oriented, such as managing a sales process or member relationships in a bank.
  • From the user's perspective, all model-driven apps offer a similar experience across different devices, adding to their accessibility.
  • Although model-driven apps are referred to as data model driven apps, they cannot be created without a data model within Microsoft Dataverse.
  • Unlike canvas app development where the designer controls the app layout, with model-driven apps, the user interface is largely determined by the components you add to the app. This method of application development offers some notable advantages.

To gain deeper understanding of this topic, interested individuals can opt for training courses on Microsoft Power Apps, focusing on model-driven app creation. This would cater to those aiming to apply AI technology in enhancing data query and application manipulation.
