Creating and explaining formulas with Copilot now even easier

On the Microsoft Power Apps blog, Warren Bryant wrote that Microsoft has rolled out the new “create a formula” preview feature in Power Apps that makes building and editing Power Fx formulas simpler and more user-friendly.

Bryant stated that now Copilot can also explain parts of long formulas, helping you understand specific sections of the code. In addition, he noted that Copilot in the formula bar now supports more languages, so more people around the world can use these helpful tools.

In his blog post, Bryant wrote that the “create a formula” feature lets you generate Power Fx formulas directly from natural language. He then explained how to do it.

Bryant added that in addition to creating formulas, Microsoft has expanded its formula explanation capability to include the ability to explain a partial formula.
