Use Copilot to create and edit Power Fx formulas

Copilot is an AI feature in Power Apps Studio that helps you create and modify Power Fx formulas quickly. You can use Copilot in the formula bar to explain Power Fx formulas in natural language or generate Power Fx formulas from natural language or code comments.

Prerequisites

Copilot must be enabled for your environment and tenant. For more information, see Enable or disable Copilot (preview) in Power Apps.

Note

By default, the new formula bar is enabled. If the Copilot functionality menu isn't visible, check the following app settings in Power Apps Studio:

  1. On the command bar, select Settings > Updates.
  2. From the Retired tab, turn off the Legacy formula bar toggle.

Explain a formula

Use Copilot in the formula bar to understand what a formula is doing in plain language.

  1. Select a control and its corresponding property.

  2. On the formula bar, select the Copilot functionality menu > Explain this formula, or select a subset of a formula and then select the Copilot functionality menu > Explain this Selection to explain only that part.

    Copilot provides an explanation of the formula that you can copy and insert as a code comment or share with other makers who are working on the same app. When explaining a selection, Copilot may also provide additional context if it is important for the explanation.

Known limitations of explaining formulas

  • The maximum length for a formula explanation is 5,000 characters. If the formula exceeds this limit, use a partial explanation to ensure it works.
  • Copilot only recognizes default properties in Power Apps.
  • Copilot doesn't recognize user-defined functions.

Note

AI generated content may be inaccurate and should be checked for accuracy.

Generate formulas from code comments

Copilot can generate Power Fx formulas from code comments in the formula bar. You can accept the suggestion or type the formula yourself. Formula code comments can also serve as documentation for your formulas, just like regular code comments.

  1. With your canvas app open for editing, type a code comment using // or /* in the formula bar.

    Wait a few seconds for Copilot to generate a formula suggestion or press Enter to generate it immediately.

  2. Press Tab on the keyboard to accept and use the suggested formula. You can also type through the suggestion.

The suggestion remains until you select elsewhere or type a character that doesn't match the suggestion.

You can keep the comments used for generating Power Fx formulas in the formula bar as documentation, similar to traditional code comments.

Note

  • If Copilot doesn't provide a suggestion, then it couldn't generate a formula based on your comment. Try rephrasing the comment.
  • We recommend enclosing in quotes the elements that you want to include in your formula, such as "Button1.text".

Known limitations of generating formulas from code comments

  • Copilot works on that singular control and property, and it won't make changes to other controls or properties to achieve the desired outcome.
  • Copilot doesn't take existing formula text into account.
  • Copilot only recognizes default properties in Power Apps.
  • Copilot doesn't recognize user-defined functions.
  • Code comments only work with general Power Fx functions, and not Power Apps-specific functions such as Navigate().
  • The advanced panel doesn't trigger suggestions.
  • Existing formulas for the property aren't included in the suggestion.

From the Copilot button in the formula bar, you can now generate a formula from natural language from a discrete request.

Prerequisites

Before you can use Copilot to create a formula from a discrete request in your canvas app, you need to turn on Copilot for formula in the app settings in Power Apps.

  1. Open your canvas app for editing in Power Apps Studio. On the command bar, select Settings > Updates.
  2. On the Preview tab, find and turn on the Copilot for formulas setting.

Use Copilot to create a formula from a discrete request

  1. Select a control and its corresponding property.

  2. On the formula bar, select the Copilot functionality menu > Create a formula.

    The Copilot menu opens inline when the formula bar is expanded, or below the formula bar if it's collapsed.

  3. In the Copilot text box, type your request, such as show today's day of the week.

  4. Copilot will attempt to create a formula. Select Accept to insert the formula in the same position as the Copilot interface, or update and resumbit your request.

Note

The same limitations apply for creating a formulas from a discrete request as generating formulas from code comments.
