Details

Body (from Message Center)

We are announcing the ability to build and edit generative pages for your model-driven apps directly from code generation tools. This feature reached public preview in US regions on February 25, 2026, and will reach general availability on April 2, 2026.

How does this affect me?
This feature enables makers and developers to work within their preferred code generation tool, such as GitHub Copilot or Claude Code, while connected directly to your Dataverse environment to create and edit generative pages in your model-driven apps.

Any updates pushed from external tools integrate seamlessly with the Power Apps generative page designer, supporting features like restore, undo, code compare, and code editing. New generative pages created using external tools are now automatically named using AI-generated, context-aware titles rather than generic placeholders.

With this feature, we are expanding support for generative pages globally, allowing users in any region to create and iterate on generative pages. Please note that the app designer's generative page experience, provided when users select Add a page > Describe a page, is currently only available in the US region. Users outside of the US region should use external tools to create and edit generative pages.

What action do I need to take?
This message is for awareness, and no action is required.

If you would like more information on this feature, or guidance for building generative pages that align with your users' language and formatting expectations, please visit Create and edit generative pages with AI code generation tools (preview).
