Power Platform Release Planner App

Key insights

• Release Planner App — A centralized tool built by Microsoft Power CAT using Power Apps Code Apps, React, custom connectors, and Copilot Studio to explore upcoming features across Microsoft business products.
  It offers search, filters, card/calendar/timeline views, bulk actions, print to PDF, and a fully customizable React-based interface.
• 2026 Release Wave 1 (Apr–Sep 2026) — The current official release wave covers April through September 2026 and lists planned updates for Dynamics 365, Power Platform, and role-based Copilot offerings.
  Microsoft publishes release plans in two waves each year to help teams plan ahead.
• Agentic AI shift — Microsoft emphasizes AI that acts as an operator, not just an assistant, by automating work, connecting to enterprise data, and executing end-to-end workflows.
  This change increases automation and cross-app actions across business processes.
• Key product updates — Dynamics 365 gains agentic, AI-driven features across sales, service, finance, supply chain, HR, commerce, and ERP with deeper Copilot ties.
  Power Platform focuses on modernizing apps and pages, AI automation in Power Automate and Copilot Studio, better Dataverse intelligence, and stronger governance and cost controls.
• Planner benefits — The app gives early visibility, personalized planning, upgrade readiness, and governance insight so teams can align rollouts and security changes.
  It also tracks feature availability across Commercial, GCC, GCC High, and DoD clouds and supports additional languages after the English release.
• How it works and access — Use the planner to browse, filter, and track feature status and timing, and try early-access items before general availability.
  The solution includes an embedded Copilot Studio agent for natural-language queries and the full source and setup are available in Microsoft’s Power Apps Code Apps repository for teams that want to deploy or extend it.
