Exploring Power Apps’ New Generative Pages: A Game-Changer in Customization

Yesterday, I used the new Generative Page preview features in Power Apps to add a helper interface to a small Model Driven App I had built. In about 15 minutes of work, I had added a valuable new capability to my app that would have been somewhat more limited if integrated into a traditional Model Driven form page.

Did it work first time? No. Did it throw some errors along the way? Yes. Did I have to start again, describing a slightly different version of what I wanted to make it work? Of course. It's in preview after all.

But this is leaps and bounds ahead of the Copilot-based help we had in Power Apps just a few months back, where you could describe an app and unless your needs were both super simple and for a very common app, it would pump out something that made very little sense.

This type of tooling is likely a large part of the future of user customization in Power Apps. It is a common scenario that a user or group of users need an interface to do or see one or two things that are important to them. It seems like Generative Pages could fill in these gaps pretty easily.

Just yet, this isn't quite "software on demand" in the end-to-end sense, but it is another example of how AI can assist human users in doing their job the way they feel is most productive.

Have you tried Generative Pages yet? What has been your experience?
