Matt showcases a new preview feature inside Dataverse tables. There is now a new datatype called Formula. This data type allows you to leverage the PowerFX language for populating the column. From simple math calculations to conditional logic.

In this demonstration, he will show how to do a simple math calculation and also set the Boolean value of a column using an If statement that references columns directly on the table. He later showcases how a PowerAutomate could use one of the formula columns to execute a flow.
