Business value

Organizations that rely on semiannual releases for major changes might limit the speed of innovation and delay access to newer features. When you enable this feature, you enable the Sales Hub app for the monthly release channel, so you can update it every month. This frequent update cycle ensures the Sales Hub app gets the latest generally available features as quickly as possible. With this feature, you stay at the forefront of innovation and continuously improve your workflows.

Feature details

With this feature, the out-of-the-box Sales Hub app that Microsoft ships uses the monthly channel instead of the semiannual channel. With this change, you get new features every month instead of waiting for the semiannual releases. For more information about features that ship in the monthly channel, see Monthly channel release notes for model-driven apps.

Release channel configuration provides three options: Auto, Monthly, and Semiannual. Currently, the default value for the Sales Hub app is Auto. With 2024 release wave 2, the release channel for the Sales Hub app changes from Auto to Monthly. To continue using the semiannual channel, set the app release channel to Semiannual before October 2024. To enable the monthly channel for other model-driven apps, set it manually.
