strong emphasis on AI agents, closed-loop learning, governance, and deeper Copilot integration. The June 2026 Power Platform feature update highlights enterprise-grade agent capabilities (e.g., closed-loop learning in Power Apps MCP), enhanced Power Automate desktop flows, advanced connector governance, and Power BI AI/reporting improvements. SharePoint Online sees ongoing Copilot-driven enhancements for content management and new experiences. Pricing and licensing shifts (e.g., end of standalone SharePoint/OneDrive plans) and security updates are also rolling out. Overall, the focus is on making AI more autonomous, governed, and actionable across low-code/no-code tools while improving usability and compliance.
