Frontline workers
Frontline workers using shared devices can use Edge and Yammer apps on Android alongside Teams – Microsoft’s shared device mode allows frontline workers to easily authenticate by automatically signing users in and out of all the apps that have enabled this feature. In addition to Microsoft Teams and Managed Home Screen being generally available, Edge and Yammer apps on Android are now in public preview.
Power Apps
In Power Apps: Dataverse available with a Developer environment, IP based cookie binding, shared device mode, virtual tables creation wizard,
Making Dataverse available for all makers
You can work on Power Platform using Dataverse for building applications where now you can work with relationship modeling in Canvas applications, leverage Model driven applications, build virtual tables, Power FX, formula columns, ALM and much more.
Developer environment is great place for you to build and run the apps with Dataverse in your own personal space, without restriction and then eventually share and deploy to production environments. Developer environment honors tenant’s default DLP policy and hence a secure place for makers to start the experience while honoring their organization policy.
IP based cookie binding in Dataverse is Generally Available
IP based cookie binding is a security technique that helps protect Dataverse against cookie replay attacks. A cookie replay attack occurs when an attacker intercepts a valid cookie and exploits it to impersonate the user who originally created the cookie.
IP based cookie binding addresses this threat by evaluating the IP address associated with the cookie in the request. If the IP address in the request does not match the IP address of the device where the cookie was originally created, the Dataverse API will automatically reject the cookie and prompt the user with a message indicating that their session may have been compromised.
Microsoft recently announced the public preview of Shared Device Mode(SDM) on Android. Frontline workers will now be able to quickly, easily, and securely log in and out of their devices when handing off mobile devices or sharing kiosks. This single login will apply to Power Apps, Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Teams, Managed Home Screen, Microsoft Edge, and Yammer. This feature is particularly useful for industries like Retail, Healthcare and Manufacturing where multiple users share devices, often within a shift with tight time constraints.
Note: Public Preview of Shared Device Mode for Power Apps for Android starts with availability beginning with the 3.23011.13 version. IOS availability will be announced at a later date.
Virtual tables creation wizard now in Public Preview
Microsoft have announced that makers can now create virtual tables directly in the maker portal in just a few minutes using a guided creation wizard. With this new experience, you can create virtual tables from SharePoint and SQL without any code, and without leaving the maker portal. In minutes, you can set up your connection, pick your SharePoint Site or SQL Database, select your SharePoint List or SQL Table, and your virtual table will appear in table hub ready to use. You can optionally choose to configure your connection references and table details, such as column and table names, which was not possible for virtual tables until now.
Upon creating the virtual table, it will act like a standard Dataverse table, from which you can create relationships with other data in Dataverse, build apps, or use it in a flow.
In Power Automate: Power Automate Desktop update, manage flows via web APIs, 13 new verified connectors, 20 new independent publisher connectors, Power Automate hosted RPA, Excel’s new automate tab
Power Automate for desktop update January 2023
The January 2023 update of Power Automate for desktop (version 2.28) has been released. Here’s a summary of the latest new features and updates:
Power Automate now performs a certificate check during login
Error screenshots can now be prevented from being captured
More SharePoint connector actions are now available in Power Automate for desktop
Manage Power Automate Desktop flows using Web APIs
Microsoft have recently introduced Web APIs, which can let you manage desktop flows without the need of using UI – allowing administrators and Automation Center of Excellence teams to manage at scale. Power Automate Web API allows you to:
The Power Automate team announced that in December, we launched 13 new verified connectors and 12 updates from different service owners. These connectors have solutions and tools for Business Management, Sales and CRM, Marketing, Content and Files, Productivity, Communication and much more.
20 new Independent Publisher connectors were published in December. These connectors have solutions and tools for Social Media, Human Resources, Productivity, Lifestyle and Entertainment, and much more.
Power Automate now supports two hosted RPA scenarios that provide developers and Center of Excellence admins a simple way to set up and scale automations:
Individual hosted machines, now available in preview, enable developers to build or test automation and business users to run automation.
Hosted machine groups are generally available and automatically scale workloads to optimize unattended automation in production, delivering improved business process continuity and governance at scale.
xcel’s new Automate tab allows you to tackle your automation needs quickly using Power Automate. Within this tab, you can now build Office Scripts and enhance their capabilities using Power Automate.
In Power BI: Datamart January 2023, Report Server January 2023 Feature Summary, multi-language reports for Power BI, embed Power BI org-wide apps into Teams, back/ restore updates for large datasets, connected Excel Tables, my workspace governance improvements, Dataset Scale-Out, on-premises data gateway, Viva Goals + Metrics integration
Datamarts are a public preview feature in Power BI Premium (and Premium Per User) that enable self-service users to securely collect, store, analyze, and share their data in a unified, low code solution. This months update includes:
Building Multi-language Reports for Power BI in 2023
The Power BI team recently announced an essential function in DAX named USERCULTURE which provides the ability to write measures which implement report label translations dynamically, plus another new feature named Field Parameters which offer a much better foundation for implementing data translations.
Following this, there is now new guidance for building multi-language reports that embraces these new Power BI enhancements. This guidance has been designed to teach content creators using Power BI Desktop the skills required to add translations and multi-languages support to PBIX project files.
Embed your Power BI organizational apps in Microsoft Teams
You can now embed entire Power BI organizational apps in Microsoft Teams tabs. Until now, this has been one of the top feature requests for Power BI integration with Microsoft Teams. It helps teams and organization put the full Power BI org app experiences directly where people work every day. By adding Org apps in channels and meetings, you enable everyone to access the data they need.
Backup and restore improvements for large datasets near the size limit
In August 2021, the Power BI team announced general availability (GA) of backup and restore for large datasets. Rolling back large datasets was not without challenges for large datasets near the max dataset size. But thanks to the latest improvements, you can now even restore a backup file when the dataset size is near the SKU limitation. You no longer need to be concerned that size limits impact restorability.
Now, you can now use a new /forceRestore option with the restore command to overcome this limitation.
Connected Excel Tables from Power BI (Public Preview)
Before now, you could only analyze live Power BI data in Excel using PivotTables (with the Analyze in Excel feature) but with this new experience, you’ll be able to use Excel tables to analyze live Power BI data and answer critical business questions with familiar spreadsheet functions. This new connected experience enables you to export refreshable data to Excel from a Power BI visual.
My workspace governance improvement (Public Preview)
My workspace is the personal workspace every Power BI user has for working with their own content. The Power BI team have announced the Public Preview of several features that address these friction points. These new features allow admins to gain access to the contents of any user’s My workspace, designate a capacity for all existing and new My workspaces, and prevent users from moving My workspaces to a different capacity that may reside in a non-compliant region.
The Power BI team have announced the public preview of Power BI Dataset Scale-Out, a dataset feature enabling enterprise customers to support large-scale Power BI solutions without any additional administrative overhead or infrastructure complexity.
The idea is to let Power BI scale the number of dataset replicas and load-balance client connections dynamically to meet query processing demands at critical times up to the maximum available compute resources (vCores) of the underlying Premium capacity. During low-demand times, Power BI can automatically scale back to decrease the number of replicas again.
The Power BI team have announced the general availability of the Viva Goals Power BI integration and three new Metrics features specifically answering common customer asks. A new, optional column for milestones, scorecard time zones, and a handy auto collapse / auto expand feature.
