Power Platform's September 2026 feature update highlights AI-powered development, expanded learning resources, and UI improvements across the suite, signaling a broader push toward AI-assisted productivity.

Microsoft’s push to accelerate AI-assisted development continues, with strengthened learning and automation capabilities across the Power Platform ecosystem and enhancements to model-driven and canvas apps.

Model-driven apps receive a UI modernization with a GA header and navigation refresh, plus a public preview of display density to fit more content on pages, offering per-user defaults for a comfortable, cozy, or compact experience.

Generative code generation reaches general availability in model-driven apps, enabling building and editing apps from natural-language requirements via AI tools such as GitHub Copilot CLI and Claude Code.

Generative pages can be embedded inside model-driven app forms and draw data from Power Platform connectors in public preview, enabling AI-generated experiences that pass the current record ID to the page.

Power Automate adds quick start cards on the home page and server-side search to speed up locating flows in environments with many workflows.

Canvas apps gain six new Fluent screen templates based on Fluent 2, plus ongoing updates to modern controls and preserved formulas, including enhancements to progress bars, avatars, spinners, and date pickers.

Canvas app development gets an agent-assisted capability with a generally available canvas authoring agent plugin for AI-assisted building and updating, alongside MCP support.

Power Series adds 20 hands-on labs from the Power CAT team to help learners build practical Power Platform and AI skills through self-paced, real-world exercises.

Learning updates include revised training paths for application lifecycle management and solution architecture design for Power Platform solutions, with additional related resources.
