Important changes (deprecations) coming in Power Platform

Welcome to Power Platform Weekly!

Power Pages is integrated into the monitor hub. This integration empowers site owners, makers, and administrators to access performance and usage insights directly within the monitor hub of the Power Platform admin center.

Native connectors support through Power Pages will allow organizations to securely connect their websites/portals directly to enterprise systems such as SQL, SAP, and Oracle, without building or maintaining custom integration layers. This capability is especially valuable for regulated and enterprise customers such as banking and financial services, who need to surface data from systems hosted behind corporate firewalls.

The security agent is available directly within the security workspace in Power Pages design studio. Makers can open the security agent tab to access the embedded chat panel and security tools.

This feature merges Power Pages web roles and site users with Dataverse security roles and system users, creating a unified authorization model. User Mapping: Each Power Pages user is stored in both the System User table and the Contact table.

The Power Pages plugin for GitHub Copilot CLI and Claude Code now supports creating and editing traditional (non-SPA) Power Pages sites. Developers can use natural-language prompts in their AI coding agent to create a new traditional site or download, inspect, and update existing site metadata such as web pages, web templates, content snippets, basic and multistep forms, lists, table permissions, web roles, and site settings, then upload changes back to their environment using the Power Platform CLI.

Power Pages now lets you manage external authentication providers with environment-level governance controls and optional site-level exceptions. You can centrally enforce which identity providers (IDPs) are allowed across all sites in an environment, while still enabling site-specific flexibility when needed.

Gain insights into your Power Pages site with integrated telemetry and analytics. Use Application Insights to monitor page views, form interactions, session details, and client-side analytics.

Build native mobile applications or kioks using Power Pages as the backend foundation with support for authentication, authorization, APIs, data access, and reusable mobile capabilities.
