In this 9-minute developer focused demo, Dewain Robinson shows that by tapping the power of Chat GPT for creating responses in real time, one need not author content in the bot. Control the GPT experience by limiting the content accessed (corporate approved), by the Power Virtual Agent (PVT), the dialog manager. Generated responses include short answer and links to supporting content. Capability included in the Public Preview delivers a new paradigm for how topics will be created and managed for conversational agents.

In this developer-focused demo, Chandra Sekhar will guide you through the process of using the Power Platform Independent Publisher Connector with Power Automate. The connector requests information, such as the URL to be shortened, from the SHRTCODE API, which responds by passing back a JSON containing the shortened URL, original URL, and domain name. This data is then sent to SharePoint List and will be consolidated all the shortened URLs along with the original version. Chandra will also show you how to organize and manipulate the returned data. The connector currently has 2 actions available. This video was taken from the November 9, 2022 Power Platform Integrations / Connectors LABs Call.

In this 14-minute developer-focused demo, Robin Rosengrün shows how through his connector, users can access OpenAI’s Generative Pre-trained Transformer 3 (GPT-3), an autoregressive language model that uses deep learning to produce human-like text. To access GPT-3, you will need an OpenAI account. Connector exposes available GPT-3 List engines and responses to your questions (prompts) in any language. Familiarize yourself with OpenAI’s capabilities in Playground then build an instant cloud flow with an OpenAI step to access APIs via connector.

As classic Power Apps capabilities are making their way to modern Power Apps and Power Apps Designer, here are five configuration tips you can implement today to improve user experience in your model-driven apps. Better user experience meaning – user is not overwhelmed with irrelevant information or UI, or the user can make add/edit information in context rather than exiting app to make updates.

In this 12-minute developer-focused demo, Natalie Pienkowska shares 49 connectors are in production and 34 in the pipeline! The Coinbase platform allows anyone to get current crypto exchange rates, currencies, and crypto market rates. This connector was built by presenter, non-developer Roy Paar in his Power Apps sandbox.

In this 12-minute citizen developer/developer-focused demo Natalie Pienkowska and Martyn Lesbirel share a time off request app that uses an independent publisher connector to grab a list of UK Government Bank Holidays (json). Employees quickly determine if time being requested falls on a bank holiday negating the need to request time off for those official holidays. User enters dates in request form, Power Automate flow processes the request - checks holidays and returns answer. This PnP Community demo is taken from the General Microsoft 365 Development Special Interest Group (SIG) - Bi-weekly sync call recorded on September 30, 2021.

We are excited to announce the release of a new guided experience in Lists that will make it easy to create business intelligence reports in Power BI using your list data as your source.

List users will see a new menu option in Integrate, then Power BI, then "Visualize this list", which allows users to create a new Power BI report using that list. With just one click, you'll be able to autogenerate a basic report and customize the list columns that are shown in the report. To take further advantage of Power BI, go into Edit mode. Once a report is saved and published, it will appear in the same Power BI submenu under Integrate.

Users with a Microsoft 365 E5 license or Power BI Pro license will have access to the full report authoring and viewing experience. Users without either of those licenses will be prompted by Power BI to sign up for a 60-day free trial of Power BI Pro when they attempt to save a new report or edit or view an existing report. You can turn off self-service sign-up so that the option for a trial is not exposed to List users, click here. Users with a Power BI free license may only visualize their list data but cannot publish nor view reports.

Get started creating in the Power BI service: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/blog/quickly-create-reports-power-bi-service/

In this 14-minute Developer - focused demo, Paolo Pialorsi delivers an option to extend or replace the Power Automate Flow Panel with a Flow Launch Panel built with SPFx that’s accessed from within SPO/Microsoft Teams, and that triggers flows by content type or status, and allows flow reuse across multiple lists and libraries. The SPFx launch panel delivers a comfortable level of abstraction and behind the scenes intelligence that prompts users only for needed information in the simplest terms. This PnP Community demo is taken from the SharePoint Framework and JavaScript Special Interest Group (SIG) – Bi-weekly sync call recorded on November 19, 2020.

Hugo Bernier (@bernierh) and April Dunnam (@aprildunnam) walk through an enhanced SharePoint sample web part that shows how to embed a Power App that resizes, adapts to themes, and supports dynamic properties. It also resizes the app to fit the web part dimension. The sample demonstrates how to react to changing theme colors and section background colors and can pass theme colors to the embedded Power Apps application.

Better yet, Jim Duncan and Francisco Tucker show viewers how to automate the process using Power Automate, Adaptive cards, and an Azure function to move videos, get approvals, create thumbnails, send notifications and create news posts.

This PnP community demo is taken from the bi-weekly SharePoint Developer Community - General Development Special Interest Group (SIG) call recorded on March 5, 2020.

“How can I quickly and verbally set my out-of-office auto-reply in Outlook from my iPhone?” Chakkaradeep (Chaks) Chandran recently asked himself this question and in this 14-minute demo, he steps through configuring a Siri Shortcut to trigger (http) a Microsoft Power Automate – “OOF flow,” to verbally set his OOF in Outlook. Opening command: “Siri, set OOF message.” Follow the information collection conversation and how behind-the-scenes Siri creates the http link containing data required by the Power Automate flow to execute. Step through the Power Automate flow and see final result – OOF activated in Outlook based on information collected verbally by Siri. Configuring a Siri Shortcut is similar to configuring a flow.

This PnP community demo is taken from the monthly SharePoint Developer/Engineering update community call recorded on December 10, 2019.

In this 11-minute video, Chakkaradeep Chandran - Microsoft Program Manager for OneDrive & SharePoint, demonstrates using Power Apps to collect information from users locally - stored in the gallery control and then the information is pushed to pre-mapped columns in a SharePoint list. User inputted information, such as user profile, may be supplemented with data accessed behind scenes from Microsoft Office 365, and added to form. These capabilities were recently announced at Microsoft Ignite 2019.

This PnP community demo is taken from the monthly SharePoint Developer/Engineering update community call recorded on December 10, 2019.

In this 41-minute video, Chakkaradeep Chandran - Microsoft Program Manager for OneDrive & SharePoint, delivers an update on the continuum of business process solution capabilities built into and on-top-of SharePoint lists and libraries and that are built to draw from the entire Microsoft 365 stack from within SharePoint. This session includes demos focused on conditional formatting and on using Power apps for repeating tables. These capabilities were initially announced at Microsoft Ignite 2019 and have been updated since.
