Business value

Detailing solutions to a business problem takes time and effort. Before you start creating apps, flows, and other objects that solve your users' needs, you need to understand the solution architecture. Copilot understands common solution architecture patterns. It uses other sources, such as images, to better understand the problem. Copilot helps you create user roles, define role-specific requirements, and suggests data schema, apps, and other objects that form a solution to the business problem. You can collaborate with Copilot and iterate over user roles, requirements, schema, and objects to make sure the final solution meets your business needs.

Feature details

Creating solutions to address business needs involves more than just developing an app. Solutions are a collection of objects from across the Power Platform that store data, provide end-user apps, and automate workflows. Regardless of the technology you use to solve a business problem, start by defining your solution architecture. This architecture supports different user roles and their requirements. With this approach, you can build a solution that benefits your business. Copilot can help you detail the scenario and requirement definitions. It helps with user roles, user requirements, data schemas to support data, and creating an overall solution architecture through proposed objects.

• Scenario and requirement definition: Describe your business problem. Add extra context like process diagrams, data models, or even screenshots of legacy apps. Copilot uses this information to draft user roles and requirements for the solution.
• Data modeling: After you align requirements, Power Apps proposes a data model to support the solution. You can explore and update the model through a visual entity relationship diagram.
• Solution architecture: Copilot recommends the types of apps and automation that fit your requirements. In this release, the recommendations include canvas and model-driven apps, as well as cloud flows in Power Automate.
