Joe Griffin To make any agent effective, it's necessary to incorporate relevant tools connecting to our key business systems so we can automate actions, realise more complex sequences, and have our agents really "dazzle" from an end-user perspective. Fortunately, thanks to low-code agent-building platforms like Copilot Studio, deep development expertise is not necessarily required to integrate these tools; have your idea and a couple of (appropriately privileged) credentials handy, and you can start to build. In this hands-on, demo-led session, we'll jump into Copilot Studio and understand the power and versatility of tools. We'll take a look at the different types of tools you can use, such as agent flows and MCP Servers, the importance of proper configuration for each tool, and how we can use tools in combination to handle more complex user prompts. If you are sick of working with manual topics and cloud flows to automate your agents' workflows, then this session will illuminate the art of the possible.

Carl Cookson The Power Platform now offers several Copilot‑driven ways to build applications, but choosing between Code Apps, Generative Pages, and vibe.powerapps.com is as much an organizational decision as it is a technical one. In this session we will compare these three approaches from both angles. Technically, we will look at how each option is built, how Copilot is applied, what level of control you have over data models, UI, logic, and extensibility, and where the current limitations are. You will see how starting an app from code differs from starting from a prompt, and how AI‑generated structure fits into traditional Power Platform patterns. From an organisational perspective, we will explore what each approach enables for different roles and teams. We’ll discuss how Code Apps support professional developers and complex ALM scenarios, where Generative Pages accelerate delivery inside model‑driven apps, and how vibe lowers the barrier for business users to move from idea to working solution. We will also cover the impact on governance, maintainability, skills adoption, and collaboration between makers, developers, and IT. By tying the technology to real delivery models, this session helps you understand: - When speed matters more than flexibility, and when the reverse is true - How different build experiences influence ownership, support, and long‑term sustainability - How these tools can coexist within a single Power Platform strategy rather than competing with each other If you are responsible for building apps, enabling teams, or setting direction for Power Platform adoption, this session will help you align the right Copilot experience with both technical requirements and organizational goals.

Magnus Gether Sørensen Stop crossing your fingers and hoping AI-generated code works. In this session, we'll move beyond "vibe coding" and into the world of agentic engineering, where AI doesn't just write code that works - it writes code you'd be proud to ship to production. Since August 2025, I've been successfully deploying AI-written code to real customer environments. The secret? An open-source framework that transforms AI from a coding assistant into a professional developer who writes safe, maintainable, and thoroughly tested Dataverse and Azure code. What You'll Learn: * Live demonstration of AI writing production-quality Dataverse plugins, custom APIs, and business logic that looks exactly like senior developer code. * Deep dive into the framework architecture that enforces coding standards, security patterns, and comprehensive test coverage. * How agentic engineering differs from typical AI coding: focusing on long-term maintainability, not just immediate functionality. * Practical strategies to implement this approach in your organization—either by adopting my open-source framework or building your own. Why This Matters: While everyone's talking about AI and Copilot, we're actually shipping AI-written code to production. This isn't about prompting tricks or hoping for the best - it's about systematic engineering practices that make AI a reliable member of your development team. The agent even writes more unit tests than most developers (myself included) because it never gets lazy. Key Takeaways: * Understanding the shift from ad-hoc AI assistance to systematic agentic engineering. * Concrete patterns for ensuring AI-generated code meets enterprise standards. * Access to the open-source framework and implementation guidance. * Real-world examples from months of production deployments. Join me to discover how professional Dataverse development with AI isn't just possible - it's already happening, and you can start implementing it tomorrow.

Diana Birkelbach "Pro coder was yesterday" or "We don't need developer anymore". In the AI times, generative coding is taking over, and you probably heard this kind of thesis somewhere. Do you think that too? It's true that the developer role shifts, and developing Power Apps is not an exception. But let me show you, why a developer can make a difference, even if the code is generated. We'll consider the UI of the Power Apps: from PCFs to Generative Pages and Code Apps. In each of them we can generate code until a certain level. The starting point is different. And in each of them we'll probably need a developer at one point. PCF: where do we need them? And how can we use generative features? Generative Pages: we'll cover the basics and see a lot of examples and go into advanced usage: from Model-Driven Apps Theming, using Fluent UI 9, how to deal with needed controls, solving issues and modify the code. Code Apps are awesome too, and we have a huge start up booster: GitHub Spark. And then GitHub Copilot speeds up everything. Let's explore them together! Your takeaway: - Generative Pages are a huge booster, democratizing the app development, but for some parts a pro coder will make a difference - Generative Coding with Code Apps & GitHub Spark and PCF with GitHub Copilot will help the developer to be much more productive - Generative code tools are there to improve the work of developers
